Hey I'm new :) first day today!

Hey, I'm Emily, I'm 29 and starting my first day on this app and website. I'm quite excited, it looks really good and useful! Brief background is that I've always been a bit of an obsessive with my weight and body issues, and in June 2013 I was diagnosed with Body Dysmorphia and I've been working pretty much every day to stop all the obsessive routines I had and to emotionally let go of issues. I've done fundraisers where I did a nude photoshoot raising money for Mind (the mental health charity). Right now, I've noticed that I've put on a bit of weight, but instead of doing my usual BDD reaction of "must just stop eating for weeks and weeks" or the other eating issues I used to have, I want to monitor and introduce a healthier variety of food and more exercise into my life. I'm hoping that by using this website and the structure that I will not be as tempted to slip back into the familiar environment of all the bad habits I have gnawing away at me!

Looking forward to making some friends on here, especially if there are people here who are not a fan of sauces and nuts who have some dietary tips because everything I've come across includes either a sauce, or it has nuts in, and I can't eat them!
