Talking New Kid on the Block

Hiya,

I saw a link to this site on another site I peruse and decided you guys look like a lot of fun and I can use all the support I can get.

I have dieted my whole life and over the past 2 years have decided to make a lifestyle change since diets just don't work. I have lost 23 pounds so far but would like to lose another 60 or so. I am currently at 229 pounds and a heck of a lot healthier than I have been in decades.

Thanks to the admin and moderators this site looks like it will be very helpful in my journey.

Hi, I am also new to this website as of today. It sounds like we have quite a bit in common, I have also been dieting my whole life and I am also starting to realize that the eating better has to become a way of life and something I do day in and day out. I wish you all the best on your journey. We will all succeed!! Have a good day! Michelle

A great big for all three of you . . . so glad you've found us. And so glad to hear that you realize this is a 'forever' thing . . . there is no overnight cure available.

Welcome to 3FC! You are doing fantastic with your weight loss so far. You are completely right that this can't be a "diet", it has to be a way of life. Good luck and I hope to see you posting more.

A friend pointed out to me one day that I didn't gain all the weight in a day (week, month) I am not going to lose it all that quickly. Since then I just keep getting back up on the horse.

Thank you for the welcome.

Oh and I am from Seattle, WA.
