This is my first week using MFP. I have tried to lose weight unsuccessfullly for years for various reasons; mainly emotional. But I finally reached that "ENOUGH!" moment. Whatever that is in one's head clicked into place. Since then it has almost seemed easy. I have lost six pounds in the first ten days with only thirty or so more to go. I am at one of those crossroads where I need to change everything. I finish my master's degree and have to get a job. I am tired of having bad self esteem and feeling like I have no control over my life. At least I can get control over my weight, even if I can't control the job market.

    you are amazing for having all that in you and still finishing your education. I can understand that feeling of bad self esteem and emotional stress in life. I know you will do great!
