    I'm new here, guess I'm supposed to introduce myself. My name is Bill. I am 6'5 and approximately 360 lbs. I am overweight. I don't enjoy being overweight. Sometimes I look in the mirror and cry. :sad:

    Hello and welcome. If you are so unhappy why don't you do something about it, like eat healthy and go for a walk around the block?

    Welcome and enjoy your stay with us. Have you spoken with your doctor about a suitable diet that would help you lose weight? And while your at it explain that you're having issues with depression. There are a number of safe and inexpensive anti-depressants that could help you.

    Good luck!

    Hello. Nice to meet you.
    Tears often make a lover's skin taste better.
    It is akin to pouring juice over a roasted chicken.
    Food for thought.

    Hello Bill, welcome to the forum.

    The quote below is well worth repeating, you should consider it. ;)


    Best of luck.

    Welcome to the forum, Bill!

    Don't be so hard with you... It's not your fault if you're overweight; the majority of the people similar to you had an hard life and eat for be less sad, so, that's not your fault, don't be hard like that with you...

    And, you don't will stay like that every you're life; you can get more thin if you speak with a docteur, make warning at what you are eating, etc...

    Good luke, bill!

    This is irrelevant. Here, you're known by your thoughts, opinions, ideas, etc. Hello and welcome. :handshake:

    Although perhaps well intentioned, your statement could also be read a different way.

    Obviously our newest member Bill felt including this information relevant. After all, this is an introduction thread where persons are encouraged to tell a little about themselves.


    Just to add, in my opinion, post #3 if not irrelevant, is certainly unnecessary.

    We should encourage new members, not be flippant and dismissive.

    That's correct. It's an introduction thread, not a thread for discussing the merit of other members post. The OP is free to address any comments in the thread if he feels the need to.

    Thank you. That was exactly the constructive message I was wishing to impart.
