Beginning Again at 58!

GentleStreamFern

Hello, I've been conscious of my weight since I was 13 yrs old when I did my first diet which consisted of herb tea carrots and celery. Today I try not to think in terms of diet. Over the last 10 years, I have really changed my relationship with food and I had lost 73 lbs over a 5 yr period. But then I went through a very stressful couple years and during that time, I began using food for emotional reasons. Now, I would love to feel more comfortable in my body again and be able to move more easily. But I regained almost all of the weight I had lost (which took 5 yrs) in just 2 years!

Forgiving myself for this, I begin again on a weight loss and exercise program. I welcome support from others here who are also working on this. Wishing the best to everyone reading this and may you find great health and a sane relationship with food!
