I have been on here off and one for approximately 11 months. I have been through a lot this past year and hope I can finally stick with my journey, however, I know it would be much easier to have a good support network. More than anything this past year I have realized that I am an emotional eater, most probably since I don't have any family and few friends. I am doing my best to turn to exercise instead of food when I am feeling down and/or lonely.

Another thing that hasn't helped me at all is that the man I have been interested in for a little over a year has a problem with my weight, which he has informed me of such on numerous occasions, yet he still contacts me once in a while. At least I can say that with everything I have felt as a result of interchanges with him, unlike past relationships, I haven't put on 30+ pounds. In regards to him, I have managed to maintain my weight over the past 3 - 4 months, meaning, I have been rocking between the same 5 pound range. However, I would like more than anything to re-jump start my loss and continue moving forward towards my goal.

At the beginning of 2012 I weighed approximately 340 and by August managed to get to a range of 290 - 295, which is where I am still at. My ultimate goal is 185 - 210. I know I can do this, but it would be easier with others on a similar journey who I might be able to turn to when I start feeling defeated and maybe thinking of going on a binge.

I originally had a few more friends than just the couple I now have, but they have either dropped me or haven't logged in in several months. Please consider friending me. Thank you for your time and consideration. :)
