I'm new to 3FC , but me and dieting are old "frenemies". I've tried and failed, tried something new and failed, tried something drastic and failed over and over and over again since 5th grade--when I first started feeling uncomfortable in my body. I'm young and I only have a modest 50 pound long term weight loss goal , however I lack the 2 most important keys to weight loss. The first of which being--self control. Put a box of cookies in front of me and I'm completely helpless, I will eat the WHOLE box and then pick out any stray chocolate chips. There are three fat chicks in my family- my mom, my sister, and me. As much as I love them both, them suggesting a cracker barrel visit constantly doesn't make for a very good support unit. That's where I hope 3FC can step in...
It can be hard when friends and family push food on you. Just say no and suggest you go somewhere healthier to eat or go to Cracker Barrel and get a
salad. You will find lots of support and motivation here on 3FC. Good luck!
Welcome. I suggest you look for a Support Group or Challenge to join; a small group of friends to help keep you motivated, find one that inspires you or fits your needs, and just post to join.
Hey neighbor and welcome. I am here in the Nashville area also and so it's nice to see another Tennessean online @ 3FC
