Newbie saying Hi

Hi all, I have finally made the decision that this is the final time I will be dieting and this time I will succeed!!!!! I'm 37 and have been steadily putting on weight since I was about 13. I used to be stick thin when I was a kid but found comfort in food during some hard times, and then just found it hard to stop. I have had times when I have lost weight but always put it back on with a bit extra.
Braved the scales this week and was very shocked to find I was 285 lbs! I have a fantastic hubby and a beautiful little girl who is 2 and I want to be around to see her grow.
Been controling and recording my food intake for 4 days now and, I know it's naughty but weighed myself today and I had lost 2 lbs!! Very encouraging
Good luck to us all xx
