For the past 4 years now, I have struggled with my weight. Up and down, up and down, up and down, ESPECIALLY UP! It makes me depressed, and hating myself, being angry and taking it out on others. I haven't even gained that much more (maybe 10-15 pounds on top of what i already wanted to lose) but I've noticed my clothes start to fit funny, and even my underwear begins to feel uncomfortable...just being in my own skin feels uncomfortable... I long to just be confident and not worry about my weight or food every second of the day. I want to be stronger, and more fit, healthier with more energy. My goal is to lose 30 pounds to get me down to my old weight. Right now I am vegetarian/gluten free (for health reasons). I eat pretty darn healthy, my problem is sometimes I tend to binge on really bad food like ice cream or chocolate. I'm constantly saying "tomorrow I'll start a clean slate" but then the next day I skip the gym and eat candy and the cycle repeats itself. I want to break that cycle and not feel like I have to stuff myself with chocolate to feel good. I would like to begin working out regularly. I want exercise to be more part of my life, something I enjoy rather than a chore. I can't wait for the warm weather so I can take advantage of the many bike paths in my area to run,bike, hike....
I'm also looking for some support. I have little support here at home. I would love some online weight loss buddies to support each other with our goals. I'm a really good cook, so I can come up with really good homemade recipes we can all try....If you are serious about your goals as I am with mine please feel free to add me! We are in this together! :O)

I feel very much the same way you do. This year has to be a change for me as I don't want to feel bad about myself when I walk down the aisle. I would love for us to support each other. Feel free to add me0
