Hi there, I've already introduced myself a while back. Still looking to add more friends.
I'm a 40 year old transplanted Scot. I gained a LOT of weight over the last few years. I sank into a terrible depression after being badly assaulted in July '09. Unforunately I turned to alcohol to hide my pain. I finally got the help I needed and I'm doing well on the road to recovery. I gave up going out and drinking at the turn of the year, today is day 47!! WOHOO!!!!!! I like to motivate people and be motivated. My biggest downfall so far is my terrible snacking. Urgh....
