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 am also a compulsive overeater and definitely a sugar addict. It makes not sense that eating the whole package of cookies ok. Also I have begun to binge on cereal. I think it is partly because of the sugar.

    I am wishing for a magic wand.
