Hello from been there done that!

Don’t want to do it again! I’ve actually never been on a diet, I’ve always been in great shape, but then life happened. I went through a divorce, lost my job, blew my knee out, and moved to another city! I lived on a couch for over a year during Covid, so I got completely out of shape, gained a ton of weight (which really doesn’t help a bad knee!). I woke up and looked in the mirror and asked wth happened to me!!

    Similar story for me-- health problem resulted in large weight gain, divorce & loss of income due to covid (self-employed) and other issues led to a lot of stress binging and emotional eating.

    Welcome and I wish you well on your journey.
