Hello. My name is Amz and I'm a food addict. It took me a long time to understand this and realize I'm not a person who can eat in moderation without mindful effort. I have been successful in weight loss in the past, but my emotional eating habit has worsened substantially over the last two years. I do not have people in my life to talk to about my compulsive eating or struggles I'll have on my weight loss journey so tonight I decided to join a few groups to see if I can find what I'm lacking online - a group of understanding individuals to mutually share encouragement and support.

  • I can totally relate.My addiction happened as I was struggling to deal with my husbands addictions. My fifteen year old daughter told me yesterday how much my food addiction has impacted her own relationship to food. That sucks. But thanks for sharing. I’m here to encourage and support and be encouraged and supported. Today is day one for no sugar for me.
