I need an accountability buddy

I am Jessica, I am 35 and sometimes my relationship with food sucks . I am in the 280s really needing to lose weight. I do have aspergers. I am also passing a kidney stone and I need to watch the sodium or my feet swell. I am thinking about going back to a dietitian.

    Welcome.
    Does the autism interfere with your diet? I know sometimes it does, which is why I am asking.

    Sorry about the kidney stone. That’s hard.
    And limiting sodium gets easier with practice.

    I don't know I was diagnosed back in June. I am an emotional eater , I have a bad sense of body image because I was the brunt of fat jokes. I am on mfp because sometimes I don't eat enough or I don't get the right nutrients. Let's just say I can relate to the song I love me by demi Lovato. I have a horrible relationship with food. Mfp keeps me in check.

    Ah. That sounds familiar. I also can sometimes forget to eat. And then I get really hungry and binge. MFP has been helping.
