    Don't be scared. Just take it one meal at a time. One workout at a time.

    Good luck.

    Hi,

    I just joined this group this week and I too am nervous. I understand what you mean when you say you like to eat when you are stress. I am the same way. One thing I have learn is that if I go to the gym and exercise I am less stressed because I feel that much better about myself going to the gym. I feel that when one thing bothers me everything else tends to as well. When I am stressed out I start feeling bad about myself and the way I look. I feel if I go to the gym or for a bike ride not only does it help clear my mind but also make me feel better about myself and in the end I am less stressed. I hope this helps.

    Hi there,
    Don't be scared, just come here when you're down and need a little support. Take it one day at a time, keep lots of veggies on hand for those moments and let us know if you need anything.

    :flowerforyou:
