Looking for a female perspective (this is not a personal ad!) - 3 Fat Chicks on a Diet Weight Loss Community

Charles · 05-01-2006, 07:10 PM

Hello all,

I put up a post earlier, but I just wanted to clarify my intentions (which are completely honorable!)

I'm a male in my late twenties living in NY. I've decided, after many years of not putting in much effort, to lose the weight I've put on in the past years.

I've got a number of close male friends who are going to help me through this process, but I'd like to have some input from a female perspective as well (of course I'll take input/advice from anyone male or female). And I'd like to be a source of support for the buddy I'll hopefully find here.

I've got about 100 pounds to lose. I'm not sure how I'm going to do it or how long it's going to take me, but I look forward to going through the journey with you all here. If you're interested in buddying up, please send me a message.

Take care and best of luck to everyone.

You have defintely come to the right place for motivation and support. I would time some time and look around and you will find that all of the men and women here are great. It may help you to get some ideas on a plan that will work for you. At the very least you will get inspiration from a lot of people that post here.

The best of luck to you on your weight loss journey.

Find a diet that you can stick to. Low fat, low calorie, whatever and get moving! That will help increase your metabolism!
Feel free to send me a note if you need some support.
Take care and good luck!!!!!!

Charles McCharlieson.....alright sooooo I read some of your journal entries... faboo... I think I too am drawn less to the perks of entering ironman competitions next year and more into the... I want to order pizza and sit on my *** and play video games all night and not worry that its going to form a pattern and if Im going to go back to looking like Carney Wilson Pre surgery.... not that I ever would....A)dont have the mole and B) I have way bigger lips and more personality...but I digress... point being... Everyone here has been nice in the past...Im back today officially..but I never did click with anyone... I dont need someone with a ahhhh turn that frown upside down little pilgrim!! ONWARD WE GO!!.... **** no.... Id much rather settle for.... you know what? your face doesnt look as fat when you smile more...that kind of motivation

hard to come by I know... point is.... Im an odd bird... I embrace it... I love it... but finding someone who can provide the realistic support that will help me keep on track with weight loss... not so easy... so if you want to pal up... im game... Im 27.. by the way.. before you go thinking Im a ripe 13 with my lame wit and banter...

THAT'S exactly the kind of sarcastic, dry wit I love. Not too many get that. Let me know if you need a special friend... you crack me up.

No problem!

I feel fortunate to have both of my intro threads on the first page even though they were written a year apart. I'm thinking of introducing myself 20 more times and monopolizing this section.

stillovecartoons · 02-27-2007, 12:13 PM

So.... Im thinking I should start my own thread......something along the lines of.... I can make you cry......IF you let me... you know... a challenge of sorts....bringing together those who enjoy a good no sugar coating conversation...I mean lets face it after all we're all watching what we eat.... why not challenge eachother mentally..... I mean I could just hang out in my new thread and wait for someone fragile and weak to stumble in and then just go to town on them.......and if they breakdown.... I win... if they put me in my place.. hey we're all winners so even if I cant make them break down I win beacause I got to try.......

............but the point is.... in my sick round-about way...I would force people to be accountable...im a cut to the chase kinda gal.... my skin is so think I use my inner thigh as a very stylish leather wallet...."mines the one that says bad mofo on it"...ok..... scratch that idea... I want to love people........ but...... damn they are so easy to encourage the lemming approach to

hey Im down 5 lbs......I had a nice long conversation with my chin the other day and said look pal... you just gotta go.....you dont go with any of my outfits and you are making it hard to enjoy mirror time... either way... Mama got her point across and he's slowing moving his crap out

how was you guys weekend?

PS....have you tried the 7up cupcakes????? holy crap............ok yes... I just ate another one in order to ensure that the information I am passing on is correct.... theyre amazing.......

DRAFTROBIN · 02-27-2007, 05:12 PM

WELL StillLoveCartoons.....since I'm surrounded by fat asses here, I might as well let you in on a little secret.....I'M fat...my chin humps my boobs, my *** humps my knees, and my husband humps a whale...at least, those are the things that I feel. I FEEL like my *** drags the ground

This exactly the kind of support group I've been searching for!! I think we all compliment each other nicely :O) Let's get together and help each other with our honesty!! I might screw up, you might screw up, but at least you'll have me to chew you out for it! And visa-versa.
