Default I cant believe this place exsists!!amazing!

Hi all my name is Tarryn and im 20 yrs old. I work in HR and have had weight problems all my life- not huge weight problems..but im obviously still over weight. When i left highschool my mum bought me a gym membership because she is a fitness freak an she knew i needed help. I weighed 200 lbs.
I finally looked at myself properly in the mirrow and said i needed to do sumthing- so in 6 months (and getting wisdom teeth out and not eating for 3 weeks) i lost 38 lbs and that was perfect for me- only a few weeks ago did i see pictures of me doing a mini triathlon(im still sort of fit) and realise ive put it all back on in 2 years!!!i cant belive i couldnt even seee what id done to myself!! I'd finally fallen in love- and at the same time completely let myself go. But finally i have decided to do something about it and i found this website. it is seirously amazing!! i was reading the storuies about binge eating and it just rang way to many bells these stories! i then proceeded to look at the before after pictures and i am seriously so inspired!!
all the people on here just seems so amazing and id love to make some friends through this , so if anyone is interested i would love to!

to 3fc, I felt the same about the site when I found it just over a year and half ago. It was so nice to find people who struggled over the same things as I did and did the things that I did when it came to food.

Here you find a host of information to help you along your way in your weight loss journey. Other posters have posted which forum may give you help in your quest.

with your weight loss journey and reaching your mini goals along the way.

I'm new here too! I find this site informative as well as inspiring. It really gives me the push I need to stick to my weight loss plan. Had I not found 3FC, this time might have been another failed attempt. This truly is the place to be. I'm glad you're here.
