New here, serious about losing weight

Options
I've struggled with my weight my entire life, and I've always said I was going to do something about it but was never serious enough. Much of the time, I used food for comfort, or because I was bored. Well, I finally decided to take the plunge. This all started with cutting out soda 9 days ago, just because it was making my body feel gross from drinking so much. Then I decided to go all the way with this and finally lose the baby weight from when I had my son and then lose what I still needed to lose before getting pregnant. This is the most I've ever stuck with any diet, and it would be nice to have some support.

    @adcini‌ , yeah, soda is the one thing I'll never go back to. And I'm completely changing my relationship with food.

    Hi! You are more than welcome to add me if you like :) I log every day. I am 5'7 and weighed 140 prior to my pregnancy with my daughter... my daughter is 5 years old now so I figure I had to stop using the "I just had a baby excuse" to explain my extra weight, lol.

    Currently I am 164 lbs. and working to get to 140 :) I hope we can cheer each other on!
