Hey everyone i am new to the forum but i wanted to introduce myself. People cally me cookie or you can call me kuk for short. I am 33 and the mother of a fantastic 13 year old girl I am trying to raise to not have the same eating dysfunctions i have! I am a large woman but i am a happy one. I am a cook which makes my life insane because it is dominated by FOOD!! I am striving to take all the recipes I have or have created and turn them into healthy one. I am 300+ and i find it very hard to drop weight and have suffered from eating disorders in the past. It just seems like something I cant do but I am going to do my best! I am a bit scared I won't be able to turn it around. I would love any advice anyone can give and I can't wait to meet and support new people!

Welcome aboard! You will find a lot of information and support here. I cannot imagine cooking for a living and dieting. I think you are on the right track in recreating your recipes. Good luck to you

Welcome Cookie!

Hi Cookie! Welcome to 3FC

Welcome and good luck on your journey!!!

Good luck, Fortune Cookie! Love that name and I love fortune cookies!

thanks for the warm welcome

Hi kuk! I have found that WW points worked the best for me in that, its the only diet I have tried that I don't feel hungry. There are a lot of foods that cost zero, so you could eat as much as you want. Worth looking into. I also don't go to meetings. I am doing it all on my own from materials I have found on the Internet.

Welcome and good luck kuk! You can do this!

Welcome and good luck!!
