I am new to 3FC, but I have read a lot of threads and you guys are inspirational! I am starting the 'Ideal Protein' diet in the morning and am just going for it! I am 5'2 and 200lbs. My goal is 140! I am hoping by my 26th birthday (October '12) I will NOT be embarrassed to have pictures taken! If all you guys can do this, I CAN DO IT TOO! Right now I just feel 'Ughhhh' but I am ready for a new me, a change! So thank you everyone who posts and gives motivation. It's nice to know I am not alone

Good Luck to everyone and Keep up the good work! I CANNOT WAIT to post and tell you guys how good I am doing! Thank you again, everyone!
Here I go!
