Hello large world, anyone else with similar issues?
Love to share support and discuss binge eating management(!) and/or the challenges of under active thyroid on metabolism.
Having lots to lose and 'big' lifestyle overhaul.
Or add me as friend for any reason : ) I'm always happy to hear of others successes and struggles and like to be encouraging.
cheers

Am facing the same challenges. I am only 37 but with a BMI of 50 and well over 50kg to lose! I have an underactive thyroid and history of bullemia and binge eating!
It feels hard to thing of the finished product as we have dreamt so many times and failed!

I find distraction the best thing for binge eating...get on the computer and play a game..if it's addictive enough, you will not want to get up for food!

Good luck with your voyage!
