in Introduce Yourself
I am JT, I am here to try and keep my new found motivation to lose weight and get into a different mind set re food.

I need to lose over 100lbs.

I have been big for 30 years, and I have comfort eaten my entire life. I am now on my way to 60. Had some really good therapy and am now trying to get my body in better health too.

I work frontline with people in mental health crisis, a stressful but great job. I live alone so no one watches/supports my weight loss journey. Please dont ask for access to my diary, as if I share it I will lie ! Just saying......

JT

    Hiya JT! 👋🏿 Welcome to the wide world of the MFP forums.

    Thanks for your essential work in the mental health field, especially now.

    Which of the strategies that you encourage clients to leverage in their lives will you use as you lose this 100 lb?

    Good question. Small steps, one day at a time. And allow yourself to have a day off without punishing yourself. I'm going to endeavour to follow this :)
