vegan accountability buddy :)

I am struggling with losing weight again after gaining back what all I lost in the past. I relapsed into emotional eating and stopped exercising after covid19 lockdown. Right now I am struggling with portion control and cravings. I lack some motivation. I work fulltime and am a mommy of two. I struggled with late night eating and food addiction. I am trying to get back to my original weight. Would love to share journey's with someone who is also needing help and motivation.

    I'm really struggling right now, but I've also been on prednisone for two years, so I think that's what's making me hang on to this weight, because I do eat at a deficit and should be losing at least a pound a week. My memory sucks, so I'm not a good one as far as buddies go, but I'll try to remember to check in here. I've been looking for lower carb options that won't have me eating a lot of processed foods and I haven't been very successful. I think that's what I need to do to battle the prednisone. I've been meaning to check in with the group for a long time, I just forget. :( I'm not 100% vegan all the time, probably 98%.

    Anybody still here? I'm new (2 weeks), and have been vegan since 1991, and vegetarian since about 1980. I'd love to have a vegan friend. I've eaten a lot of vegan junk food (and have the fat butt to prove it) but am trying to eat healthy and exercise.
