Hi! I am new here. My name is Stacey. I am 26 years old and I am totally addicted to food. I am currently about 65 lbs over weight. My main struggles are my very busy schedule. I work full-time, and have two children that have various activities and such. I am an emotional eater, and I know it. I have tried several "diets" and have always failed. I joined MFP because it is so easy to track food and exercise, also to make some friends/support buddies as well. Please friend me, and help me get this horrible weight off!! :)

    Friend Request sent! Always room for more motivation & support!! Good Luck! I'm totally addicted to food as well, but have found ways to still eat a lot of good (yummy) food and stay within my calorie goals.

    Welcome! I'm a newbie too. Similar challenges stopped me from exercising and eating healthy, but I'm working to get back in shape and rediscover the fitness I used to love!

    Let me know if you need help. I have done a lot of research and lost 30lbs in 4 months with proper diet and exercise. That said, I have kept it off for over 2 years.
