Hi Anne! Welcome to 3FC!
I think it's great that you've decided to do something about your weight. You have come to the right place for support and information.
Have you decided what plan you're going to follow to lose weight. I'm currently doing Weight Watchers, it's working for me. There are plenty of other plans out there. When you decide, make sure it's something you can work with for the rest of your life. That's the first step to permanent weight loss, to realize that it is a life change.
It took me years, and years to realize that, but now I keep reminding myself that this isn't temporary. I have my weak moments when I want to throw it all out the window. But I'm doing this for my health first of all, and all the other benefits that come with it too.
If you need any help, if you have any questions, or if you just want to vent, feel free. I'm a good listener... or reader in this case!
Everyone here is wonderful. I'm so glad I found this website too, it's been a life line for me!
Best of luck to you!
I'm new and needing inspiration.
