Newbie & need support

  • Hi I am new to this whole forum thing & to online support. I have previously lost a lot of weight through weight watchers but over the last few years it is starting to creap back on. I no longer have the time to attend meetings so was hoping I could find the daily support I so deperately need online. I have approx 17-18 lbs to loose or as in my way of thinking 8 kilos (yes I am an Aussie) I am starting to find that I am just totally obsessed with food & will just eat for any reason. I plan to start my quest on Monday but thought by posting now iI was getting in some way ready & hopefully wont have 1 more false start.

    Any support & encouragement appreciated as right now I have forgotten everything I learned at WW & feel Im not sure what is right/wrong foods anymore.

    Cheers.
  • Hello Maggzs and welcome to 3FC!!

    Yes! This is a great place to find support and encouragement... just look around to find the threads and challenges which appeal to you and jump right in anywhere! LOL I am FAR from being in your category of only needing to lose 17-18 lbs but there are people here trying to lose small amounts or large, as well as maintainers!

    If you are interested in relearning about WW you might check out the specific section for it.
  • WELCOME!! you will do great here! We will all love to help you on your journey! feel free to Pm me anytime!!
  • Welcome to 3FC!
    It's great to have you here. You'll find lots of support on the forums... good luck on your journey!!
  • Thanks for your support everyone. I could really do with loosing more then 18 pounds as I am only just on 5ft but I guess to think of any more is just too hard & i do feel fairly comfortable within myself at that weight (that is assuming any of us ever feel comfortable with ourselves???) I look forward to chatting here & having someone keep me accountable as for me that really is my greatest need.

    By the way how do I PM & get the great scles etc to plot weight loss?

    Cheers & thanks.
