Hi everybody! Over the past nine years with my husband I have gained about 90 pounds! I finally decided it is time for the "eat whatever I want" phase to be done (although, baby steps people, baby steps!). I am super excited to find this place as everything else had a fee! I am a nurse and I am tired of telling people to lose weight as I stand there a whopping 241! What a hypocrite they must think I am! I hope to meet some spectacular friends as well as people looking to lose about the same amount as me (90-100 lbs). I wish the best of luck to everyone!

good luck darlin and welcome to the forum. todays my official first day too

Hey Breea78!

This is such an awesome, awesome forum. The people on here are so helpful, encouraging and downright funny! I, too, need to lose 100 pounds. I am a part of the 100 pound club (here's a link http://www.3fatchicks.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=55), and you're welcome to come and jump in with us! It's a blast!!!!

My join date on here shows as Feb 2005, but I only came here twice in that time..... I just "re-joined" 2 weeks ago. I come here many times a day....and I've already lost 2 pounds!

If you have questions, comments, concerns, suggestions, need or want to give encouragement.... or if you just want to pat yourself on the back for a job well done..... DO IT!

Look forward to getting to know you!
Julie
