Hi everyone,
From the title, you can probably tell: I've done this before! About a year and a half ago, I started a journey toward fitness and I was dojng really well. I was stronger, fitter and healthier than I had ever been before, and my body made dramatic changes. Then I fell into deep depression and I wasn't motivated to do anything. The weight came back on as a result of cycles of restricting and bingeing. The more I failed, the worse I felt, and the worse I felt, the more I failed.
I suppose you could say that since the depression began, my biggest struggle has been thinking of this as episodes of being "good" and then "failing" rather than being a lifestyle. But I'd like to get back on track and use my mistakes to improve myself. I'd love to have some friends for support please I'm looking for friends that enjoy food, to help me remember that in can and should be enjoyed while reaching goals!
Thanks in advance

Hi
Firstly, welcome back!
I've also experienced the same up and down cycles, but this time I really, really hope to do much better (and to stay committed)! I also love food and I think my biggest problem is moderation and proportions...
I hope we can support each other !0
