Hello. I go by "Q" and I'm addicted to food.

In the last two years my life has been extremely stressful, so I began to turn to food. It is like a drug to me. I even eat for pure recreational reasons! I've gained over 50 pounds in the last two years. I'm not proud of myself and I am absolutely determined to change my dependence on food while losing the weight I've gained.

Anyway, I'm going to make this site my home page so it's the first page I see when I get online. Plus, I have the application on my Android phone.

I'm super excited about my journey of weight loss and improved mental stability, and possibly meeting other people going through the same thing I am going through.

    I'm in the same boat as you! I joined about a week ago and have lost almost 5 pounds. The support here is great and really makes the difference. You don't feel like you're going at it alone. It helps keep you motivated.
