We are a group of individuals who weigh or have weighed 300+, or near there. This group was formed to provide a place for others like us to find support and hope. We are aware of the distinct problems that come with weighing over 300 lbs.
We want to invite everyone to join us in our journey.
We share laughter and tears.
We share what works for us and what doesn't.
We often use a "Topic of the Day" for discussion.
Motivational Monday
Tuesday Tips
Wednesday Wish List .. and What you are doing to obtain it.
Thankful Thursday
FUN Friday ... don't wait until you lose your weight.
Sit-up Saturdays - any physical activity
Share your Success Sunday
These are not required topics ...just ideas to share. We often find them very helpful. We also share heartaches and fears ... joys and celebrations.
We have several extra threads going on simutaneously such as Monthly Challenges, Weekly Weigh-ins, Recipes, Bios, and more. Please feel free to check them all out.
We have found this thread to be more than just a support group...
we have found it to become a home. We invite you to join us.
WELCOME!
I know you'll all agree that we are really thankful for the free services here at 3FC. The sisters offer all of this support and information with no charges to us. There are a couple of ways though that we can help out.
If you are thinking about buying anything at Amazon, why not help out 3FC at the same time? You can do this by clicking on the button for Amazon on any page in the forum, or by clicking on the button on the main 3FC page at www.3fatchicks.com . A portion of your purchase price will be given to 3FC by Amazon. It doesn't increase your price at all, but it does help out 3FC. You can use any of the Amazon.com links that you see on the site in order to help contribute to the site.
Also, BTW, in case you didn't know it, you can view the message boards "ad free" for a minimal charge. I think it's like $15 for 6 months. A very small investment to be rid of the annoying ads and make your pages load quicker.

It won't be as obvious 2 months short! Nooooo!! I told my sister if anything see if she can convince my mom to convince my dad he should stay and look after our dog (he's nearly 15 now and they say he's showing his age now 
LOL! Considering I'm showing my sister my in-progress weight loss as a surprise AS WELL, it would be showing nearly everyone that was supposed to see me at Christmas, early!! AHH! And I realllllllly don't wanna feel pressured to lose fast these next 2 months...but I want a DRAMATIC change before my parents see me! Well, anyways...I think I'm going to get my hair lowlighted before I go to Nanimo! I gotta save up though...it's $80 here! Well the day is coming....weigh-in that is, lol, and (obviously) I will post my results asap. 
Hope everyone is doing well.
Maybe you will go visit them for a vacation or quick get away and they will pick you up at the airport and look past you, not being able to recognize you.....?
You've done really well though so whatever you do, give yourself points for that no matter what, try not to get too stressed or over-do it 
), so I'll have to give it whirl!
). Then I bought things like whole-wheat bread and a couple different flavors of hummus to have during the next 2 days, so I'll still be higher in calories, but no need to eat only junk food when I've got perfectly yummy nutritious food sitting here! I've heard someone suggest using hummus as a spread on sandwiches instead of mayo, so I think I may have to try that 
down 5 more pounds!! I know you must be thrilled!
