Hi, I am trying to lose weight. I was doing great until about a month or so ago, and then something bad happened and I crashed. I gained a lot in a short time.

So sad. I am hanging on, though. Nice to eat -- I mean MEET -- you all (Freudian slip).

Hey There,

I have gained 50 pounds in the past 6 years. I have finally somewhat balanced out my weight, losing 6 from 6/2015 to 6/2016. Not much, but since I still haven't changed how much I exert myself, changing what I eat has helped. I try to use vegetables every single day, and try to make meals I enjoy the flavor of, so I am not feeling like I have to punish myself to lose weight. I do want to lose 40 lbs over this next year - but with binging, and not vomiting like I used to - and constipation from being overweight and binging - the task seems insurmountable. But, one day at a time. I have developed a terrible obsession with food. I eat like... hourly. Sometimes more. TBH, sometimes less, but not often. I try to slow down the eating with drinking liquids - water, coffee, green smoothies, occasionally koolaid - but hardly. Food addiction is so frustrating - it's like a vice grip hold sometimes. Echoing over and over and over for me to go get something to eat.

It is nice to meet (meat?) you too.
