do i belong here?

  • i am asking myself - i am looking to lose 20 to 25 lbs, so do i really belong here? i guess it's okay.
    i have been on my "diet" for almost 2 weeks now and keep yo yoing between 146 and 143.5. don't know what is going on with that b/c one day i'll be 146 and the next i'll be 143.5, then the next i'll be back at 146. i am watching my calories - between 1200-1300 (sometimes up to 1400).
    being widowed made me eat a lot more than usual and now i can't fit into my 6's anymore - i've moved to a size 10. i am not necessarily complaining, but i'd rather be in my 6's, lol!
    anyway, here i am and i hope that's okay! i would really love to be a part of this weight loss family if you'll have me. thanks!!!

  • doesnt matter how little or much you have to lose, you are more than welcome here! I am sorry about your husband, if you need to talk or anything im here. or if you need a buddy
  • Gabriel, I am also so sorry to read about your husband. The website is a beautiful tribute.

    I'm also bouncing between 143, 144, 145, 146 (and higher at night, although I should KNOW better than to weigh then!) ... I'd love to get in the 130s but would be happy with toning up what I have.

    Welcome to 3FC and I hope you enjoy it here.
