Hi all! I'm 27. Domestic goddess, Wife and Mom/Foster mom of two teenagers. I want to get well. Not just physically, but emotionally and spiritually too. Being here, for me, is more than just a calories in vs calories out kind of road.

My relationship with food is broken. I am here to be more honest with myself, and fix my relationship with food. I'm looking for people who are on that kind of journey. I have been within 10 lbs of my goal weight twice in my life which I have spent the majority of being very overweight and the reason I am at my current weight (262lb) is because although I was physically well, I was spiritually suffering with my dysfunctional relationship with food. I am getting well for the first time for myself first. Secondly, I am getting well for the people who love and care about me...not for people who I WANT to love and care about me.

So here I am. Looking for people on a similar journey with whom I can both offer and receive support. I've been logging consistently for about 3 weeks. I'm 10 lbs down and very motivated.
