Hello, I am a 56 year old woman and I have had issues with food since I was pre-school aged. I remember sneaking up at night to eat sugar, only wanting to eat carbs at mealtime, and soothing myself with food when I felt sad.
I started binge eating when I was a teenager, but I exercised a lot to burn off the calories, which one therapist said was a form of bulimia.
Getting pregnant at 18 wrecked my metabolism and my body and I've been obese ever since.
Now at 56 years old, I am dealing with many health issues and I'm mobility impaired. Losing weight will help with several of those issues.
If I can control my binge eating, I might be less depressed, and have less self loathing. At least I hope so.
I'm happy to meet you all. Let's be friends!
