Hello beautiful people, My name is Menna, i'm 21 yo and recently moved to Germany from my home country to study. Moving here alone was very stressful, i did not know anyone and unfortunately food was the way i dealt with my problems and loneliness. I began binge eating and gained 20 pounds in 4 months since i moved here. I feel like i am stuck in this cycle and it would mean alot to have friends on here so that we can support each other. I am 5'6 and i used to be about 135 pounds before i moved to Germany. Now i am 155 pounds and my bmi states that i am now officially overweight. It really made me think about it and do something before it gets worse. I have always struggled with my weight, emotional and binge eating problems but now i really want to get my life back together. I know it will take time and i am here for the long run. My goal weight is 120 pounds.

Looking forward to meeting awesome people on here :) Have a great day everyone!

    Menna, I am Lisa. I started MFP last week (lost 2.4lbs in 1 week) I am learning, slowly that the MFP peeps are fantabulous! You can message me any time you wish. Losing is hard. Gaining friends, priceless. :)
