in Introduce Yourself
Hi there.

I'm a 45 year old single mother of two darling little boys. I'm terrified I won't live to see them grow up. I'm wasting my life eating it away. I'm a food addict and just don't quite know how to get off the vicious over eating cycle. I'm not sure how this site all works yet, but I'm willing to give it a go.

I would love it if some people could offer friendship and support. It's easier than talking to my close family and friends, none of whom understand food addiction.

Cheers, Angel

    I am a 42 year old mother of 1 and would love to add some more friends also......I think we can all motivate each other...When I start a new workout I am always intimidated a bit, and it is challenging for me to put it out there at times that I need help. You will do fine, just be honest with yourself and have a good WHY reason which it sounds like you do!

    If you click on the person's name, it takes you to their profile and there should be a "Send Message" and an "Add as Friend" button!

    Hi Angel. I am also a single mother but I have a beautiful little girl. I also want to be around to see her and her children. Like they've said, who couldn't use more friends. Feel free to add me. :smile:

    Thanks everyone. I'll just keep finding your profiles and sending friend requests. I'm feeling rather positive now - hope it lasts :smile:
