Hi Everyone! New here!

Good morning everyone! I'm Hannah and I'm new here. I'm 36 and female, 5'9" and when I started logging a week ago I was 163. My goal is 130lbs by the summer. I get up early every morning before work and walk 4 miles on varying terrain at about 4mph and I do crossfit 2x a week. I'd like to go more though.
A little background I suppose.
The last 2.5 years I was a severe alcoholic and had gained 20lbs in two years. Six months ago I voluntarily entered an inpatient treatment center and gained another 10lbs. I had little control of what I was eating as we were only allowed what was given to us and since I was working on sobriety as my number one I just went with the program. Now that I'm living in transitional living and have complete control over my nutrition I can start making changes.
I'm tired of not being able to fit into my clothes comfortably anymore and it's time for a change! I've been logging my eating habits for a week and at my first weekly check in I'm at 159.8. Cool to see the numbers go down.
Wanted to say hello and introduce myself. Thank you for all the information!
Cheers
Hannah
