Just what I need! I lost about 14 pounds earlier this year but gained 7 pounds back in the last couple of months due to lots of night-time eating and bingeing. I'm so desperate to break out of this habit.

Just for fun: What is one thing you have been wanting to do when you have lost enough weight? I want to zipline. Once I lose 50 lbs, I am going to do it. My husband did a zipline course this past weekend and even offered to let me do it as well (I said no, it is a goal thing for me) I was so jealous and can't wait to do it.
Good Luck everyone.0 -
