Hello. My name is Cortnie, and I am addicted to food! (Everyone say "Hello Cortnie ;)) I have struggled with weight since I was 11. I have never had low self esteem, but I do not want to continue in my 30s weighing 200+ lbs. I have to make this change be profound and permanent for me. I am healthy (no high BP, cholesterol, diabetes, etc.) and I do not want to develop any of these, but my waist line makes me susceptible for future heart disease and i am considered "obese". yuck what an ugly word with so many ugly connotations!! I want to look in the mirror and be more than confident in the person that is looking back. I want a 6 pack! :) and I hope actively monitoring what I put into my body will help me to achieve this. I know how hard it is so I am looking for support, and I hope I can be of support to someone else in need as well. Good luck to everyone,
