Saying Hi and looking for friends

Hi all :)

I've been using the app for a little bit now, but this is the first time I glanced at the community board, although Google has redirected me here so often when I was searching for specific topics, hehe.

I'm 28 years, 5'10 and my current goal is to lose 40lbs, although that's just the first milestone and I'll make a new goal once that is reached. I've been a big girl all my life and can't remember ever being fit. However, after my 6-year-relationship ended early this year, I hit a new high on the scale in no time ( I eat to comfort myself alot :) ) and that was my wake up call. That wake up call comes a little late, I should have been more serious about losing weight much, much sooner. But I guess there is no point in regretting what I haven't done in the past and instead I do it right this time around.

I'd love to have some friends on here, so if you are looking for someone, please add <3

    Hi! Welcome to the boards. I am definitely a "recovering" emotional eater! I have lost 80 pounds in the past 2 years. I would be happy to encourage you in your journey. Feel free to add me!

    Welcome.
    I have managed to overcome comfort eating pretty well, and so can understand how hard it is to try and combat that and lose weight too.
    Feel free to add me if you would like support. My diary is open and I log everything.

    Thanks you two :) I added you both.

    And that's amazing, KLangleydoula, I hope I'll be able to make that same claim somewhere down the line :D

    Edit: And you Jo <3
