Ready for some changes - looking for others?

crikgrrl

Hi all,
I've been using the app for awhile (on and off) and this is the first time I've ventured into the forum. I'm starting to realize that having support from others is key to this weight loss journey.
I'm turning 35 in the fall, I'm married, have one child (age 3) and I've been carrying around an extra 60lbs since my father passed away in 2008 (can we say emotional eater??!)
I am ashamed to admit how much money I have spent on insane weight loss products and realize that it's a lifestyle change that I need to make.
So if you're interested in adding me as a friend, I welcome it I will happily support you on your journey too.
I appreciate humour and even smart *kitten* / sass when it comes from a positive place to motivate.
Thanks for reading (you have no idea how intimidated I have been about posting in here)

Emotional eating yeah I know this well. I too have been off and on using MFP. I can no longer just sit by and say tomorrow. I need to get up and just do it.

I also am an emotional eater which is why I am in my own boat. My own father passed away in 2009, and I have been gaining ever since. I wish you all the best, and as I like to say "you got this!!!

I'm new too and it sounds like we're in the same boat… This is my first time to the forums as well so I'm hopeful it can give me the extra boost. Good luck… we can do this!
