Hi everyone!
My name is elizabeth and I have had an acct for a while but haven't really used it. I've struggled with my weight my whole life and I'm at a point where I feel like being over weight has become a part of who I am. Which is incredibly discouraging.
I am a mom of two beautiful girls and I managed to get to just 15-20 lbs over my pre pregnancy weight and then I got stuck there. Since then I have gained 25lbs more and then lost 10. So as of now I'm about 35 lbs over my goal weight.
I deal with anxiety and I think it is a large contributor to my unstable weight. When I'm feeling really anxious I seek comfort in food I actually use food to help with several of my emotions.
I really want the strength to change my lifestyle, be strong and healthy for myself and my family, and to start feeling good again.
I thought putting myself out here might help with the accountability factor in all of this. Thanks for reading
