I am new to the 3FC forums. I am 38, with one son and desperately trying to shed the pounds. Have been successful before, but this go round is different. I am counting calories exercising faithfully and not having much success.

Looking for a buddy to encourage and to encourage me in this weight loss "adventure".

Hi Jmo

Nice to see you here. Have a browse around the forums. You'll probably find some tips and info that will help keep you motivated and encouraged.
Everyone is really helpful and supportive, and for me it helps a LOT.

If you're counting calories, maybe you should check out the fitday website, you can log your calories every day in that, and enter custom foods.

You can do it!
