Had success on here a few years back. I have anxiety and food is my number, calmer, distraction - you name it. Life long battle but I won't give up. I have been fit and thin but not in a healthy way in the past...... Exercise it key to my success, it calms me and eating well ends up following. I understand diet etc.... It is my emotions that I am battle with. Cheers!

    Hey Erin,

    I've just returned home to California from a year in West Africa, where due to the scarcity of meat, dairy, & alcohol, I lost 25 pounds and felt great. I've been home since Thanksgiving and have gained 10 back already. Gotta get back with an exercise program--Santa brought me a FitBit-type device--I'm the same as you, exercise helps my system want good food and releases stress that otherwise turns into chocolate cravings. MFP links with the vivofit I just got, but I don't know how to 'friend' people, but would also like to connect with mellow & motivating people. Happy New Year!
