Was Your First Post to 3FC Like ?
Do you remember your first post on this forum ?
--------------------------------------------------------------------- I've been feeling pretty good about myself lately (fitting in to sz 16 cotton shorts w/buttons and a zipper.. :D helped) and I got to thinking that I was really in rough shape when I first came to this group... So... I looked back to one of my very first posts...Here it is... ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Its dated 3/08 I was writing in response to a fellow diabetic who was very encouraging. Hi Patti, I'm 49 yrs. I have 75 lbs to lose. I have type 2 diabetes and was put on insulin 5+ years ago because I couldn't/would'nt get the weight off and exercise ... I'm here for support and saw your post.. Your progress is amazing and I hope you continue to do well... It is so difficult some days, but then i bump into people like you. I really need to get a handle on my food etc...I have no diabetic complications... 'yet'.... But...I eat too much at night and wake up with bs over 200... and wonder why i feel lousy... I think this site is great and I'm looking forward to connecting with people here. Thank you for an inspiring post...I'm heading off to read more that will get me thru 'tonight'.... ------------------------------------------------------------------------- I said I didn't have any diabetes complications 'yet'... but 9 months after that post I had a heart attack... since then I've developed knee problems.. And since that post I've lost 55 pounds. :cheer3: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- What was your first post like ? are your posts different now ? In mine I played down how miserable I was and just blew off the fact that I was abusing my body in dangerous ways... I have made so many changes that make more more healthy and feel proud of myself... |
My first post was my intro post found here http://www.3fatchicks.com/forum/intr...owdy-yall.html
Nothing spectacular :D :p |
Great thread SWEET-C
Evidently I can't go that far back! I have been here since my birthday in 2002. Got here by researching a recipe...over 12,200 posts ago! My first post and for a long time was on Christian Encouragers....that thread lives still today! |
Ha, mine wasn't about weight loss, it was about quitting smoking. Typical. :)
|
Oh my goodness, what a wonderful idea for a thread!
I'm going to go with the first thread I posted, instead of my replies...my first POST was about DDR, on 12-28-2005. Then I dropped out for 4 months, then came back in April and posted: Quote:
The next thread I started was a bit later, and is the first thing I actually remember posting: Quote:

I don't create many of my own posts and I didn't really do an intro post. Apparently my first one in 2006 was about Jillian Michaels DVDs. I was really into DVD workouts for awhile there.
|
My first post was in a thread about plus size tops being too short. I was sympathizing with the thread-starter since that's something that drives me nuts.
It was over 2 years ago and I am sadly dealing with the same issue since I was not successful in that initial attempt at weight loss. |
My first post was a week ago :D It's still there!
|
My first posts were about certain OTC diet pills I was trying and about a diet I found on the internet. This was in 2004, and it wasn't until a couple of years later that I "got serious" about weight loss--started counting calories and exercising regularly.
I reached my goal in 2007 and have been hovering around it since. :D Jay |
My first post is here. How things have changed!
|
I don't remember lol and mine isn't there anymore! It was probably introducing myself and asking for tips :)

My first post was back in May about zig-zagging calories. I came up with a calorie counting plan and needed some insight. Ironically, I think Jay was the first to post a response and her initial encouragement (along with the others who responded) to go with that plan has led to a 20 lb weight loss so far. |
For those of you who want to share your first or early posts.. I thought I'd post quick instructions...
Click on your user name as it appears above your avatar in a post. Select the option "find more posts by...." go to the LAST page of your old posts, this should show your old ones. |
ROFL...I cannot cut and paste my own from this browser. If anyone wants to look mine up and and post it, I would LOVE it! How interesting and what a great, great thread!

Here ya go, Thighs Be Gone..your intro post
http://www.3fatchicks.com/forum/intr...er-newbie.html "Hey there Everyone. I am so glad I found this awesome website. This looks like a great place to be and be seen! :) I would love to partner up with some of you for additional support here on the blogs or email or whatever. I have been going it alone completely with the exception of blogging on a very slow and unmotivating website." |
