Hi everyone! Titi here!
I am not one to chat or anything on the computer, but I need to do something with my weight and I looked for support on google and here I am. I am going to be 53 next week and I don't want to waste anymore time. I have to lose weight while I can still move. I weigh 370 lbs. I like myself and love my job, my family, gardening, butterflies and birds. I just have to stay focus and perhaps this site can help. HELP!!!
Hi Titi!!!! Glad you found us. I think you will find our group very supportive so I hope you will decide to stick around and let us get to know you. Feel free to join in on the numbered threads. That's where most of the action is!
I am new here also and I really enjoy the groups. I haven't posted much as I am still trying to find my way around also There are many great tips on this site and the success stories are great. I wish you the best!
What do you mean by the numbered thread. I'm trying to find my way around and boy am I slow. Thanks for your encouragement. I really feel this is it. I have to succeed. Titi
You have certainly come to a wonderful place for support, encouragement, advice and even a shoulder to cry on when needed. The people here are simply fantastic.
The 'numbered threads' are the ones you will see when you first enter the 300+ section. At the moment there is one that says "300+ and Ready to Try Again #938". That is the number we are up to at the moment. Somebody starts a new numbered thread after around 30 posts, as it gets too hard for those with dialup to load many more. There are a number of people who post there on a regular basis, and it kind of feels like a group of friends sitting and having a chat over coffee. I try to post there as often as I can, but things have been really hectic for me lately. I'll try and catch up soon.
At first, the numbered threads can appear a little daunting, because we kinda know a little about each other and ask and answer questions that new comers have NO idea what we are on about. Please don't let that put you off. We accept new people with open arms and caring hearts. We know where you are coming from and how you have felt along the way and we want to help you on your journey to a new lifestyle in any way we can.
Please come and join us. There is also a numbered thread for "Old Hens, Ready to Lose" that many of us qualify to go to, but I find that one thread like this is enough for me to keep up with.
I hope to see you over on one of the 300+ threads soon.
Titi - Welcome! I am kind of your neighbor - I live right near the boarder of NJ in NY. This is such a great place for support. Feel free to jump right in!
Titi~ Welcome, Remember we were all NEW at one point, and we dont take that for granted when we get to meet someone for the first time, please join us on our daily thread, even if it is just an hello and a quick update, dont feel you have to respond to everyone personally. Take Care.
Welcome Titi. You will absolutely love it here. The amount of support that you will get here is amazing. And the inspiration is amazing as well. Check us out on the 300+ thread. We'd love to have you.
I am 55 and post on the Old Hens Thread within the 300+ Forum.
I want to invite you to join us there too.
Anyplace I go on 3FCs has always welcomed me with open arms and they will you too.
The Old Hens thread is mostly women over the age of 40 and over 100lbs overweight. There are several of us in our 50's and many people are having success losing even at this late stage in life. It is harder since our metablism is slower... but it is doable and that is what I need to see. I CAN DO IT !!! ... and so can you !!!
Welcome to the 300+ area! We're glad to have you joining us. Please check out the "sticky" thread above marked for "NEWBIES". It has some tips for navigating in our area.
Hello and Well done on making the decision to lose the weight. You have come to the right place for loads of support, I look forward to cheering you on as the lbs come off
