Default How do I love thee ... 3FC...

Have any of you have gone to another support board for anything? Oh my gosh, we're blessed here.

I shoulda just started a quit smoking support thread here. I got these cut and pasted answers (answers?) that didn't necessarily pertain to my question or statement. Or no response at all.

I'm so glad I have 3FC and everyone in it.
How about you?

So, so glad. I've been on SEVERAL message boards and none can even come CLOSE to 3FC. At all.

Thank you to each and every member...you all make this place so much better!

Yea us! I was on Body-by-Glamour's board last year, and those girls just HATE on each other soooooo much. Everyone is very supportive here - lots of ideas for healty lifestyes. Much better to be positive about the weight-loss journey.

I used to be on a dog forum that I really enjoyed at first. However, the longer I was on there, the more I realized that the people on there were real snobs. They would berate others for things that in the grand scheme of things, weren't that important (like what kind of toys someone bought their dog.) I started falling out of love with the website when a regular there had posted saying she was devastated because she accidentally killed her dog, and people were replying with things like "what an awful accident, I hope you realize it was your fault." I know that she already felt horrible enough. I feel like 3FC is such a happy place compared to other message boards, and the people here are really SUPPORTIVE- not condescending or snobby. I love it. Thanks everyone!

I've never really been anywhere else, actually. But, I guess I've just been lucky enough to find the whole package right away.

Intelligent, witty, empathetic, knowledgable women and men who truly care about eachother's health, well-being & happiness. Everyone here knows what everyone else is going through to at least some degree, and they use it in a positive way to support & inform. What more can I say? I <3 3FC!

I tell everyone about 3FC and what a helpful website it is.
It has made all the difference in my weight loss and think of it as a dear friend who I just have to talk to every day!

I joined a couple and left the same day...none have the feel that 3FC has. Everyone here is so friendly!

I also am a member of a canine board...it is set up like this, but the feel is different. Perhaps it is the topic. Perhaps it is because there is a much more diverse audience (more men, lots of kids). IDK, I just like 3FC the best!

I've visited a lot of the other sites, some of which I even like enough to put in my favorites, but 3FC is the only site I visit daily (who am I kidding? Several times a day, more like it... and even all day on some days).

I used to frequent another weight loss board and kept hearing negative things about this board, so I decided to head on over and check it out for myself...

And I fell in LOVE with this board. There are so many real, witty, knowledgeable posters here, and so many people take time to post thoughtful answers instead of the same old tired cliches and false information one finds elsewhere. It's funny, I come back here again and again for support, but more often I come here just to be entertained or educated. 3FC is quality.
