introduction & a lil about me.

i'm sylvie - & i am a compulsive overeater, food addict, sugar addict..
i've had food issues my entire life, starting with bulimia at a very young age.

i am now in recovery, and also working a healthy food plan with exercise to lose weight.
So far, i've lost 99 lbs, and i feel great for that.. i struggle often with motivation and love that this site feels motivating for me.
i needed a site that was easy to use, for calorie tracking and fitness tracking..

Mother of 2 teenagers, and girlfriend to the most amazing partner who is supportive, loving & on board with my journey..
i currently work in healthcare, and am starting College in September for a nursing course i've been wanting to take.
Just one of the many amazing things i have going on in life these days.. i'm climbing the ladder in self esteem, that feels fabulous.

LOVE that i have the option of making new friends who are on the same journey as me..
i've links to my facebook page & blog, about my journey with weight loss & recovery so far..

(((hugggs)))
Looking forward to getting to know ya's!
- sylvie
