Just starting lifestyle change!

Started a new FB, intentionally to turn into a diet page that I could hopefully acquire a group of friends on, that could support each other through their own diet/health progress. Realized how hard it was to just "search" for an active community support group, so trying this diet specific site :) Anyone just starting, or feel compelled to lend support and smiles now and then? :)

    I'm doing the same thing. I have recently realized how.. well out of control my weight has gotten. Last year this time i was 15 lbs lighter and a year and a half ago I was 40 pounds lighter. I am looking for a support system to keep me on track!

    Hi my name is Tracey. I just started a diet and I can tell you it's not easy. I am an emotional eater. I eat when stressed or sad and I eat when happy. I find so much comfort in food and all I want is to hate it. :laugh: :sad:

    Meeee toooooo. I just keep gaining. At this rate I may end up needing an entire new wardrobe!
  • Time for a change. Just because you are an athlete, does not mean you cannot be WAY out of shape. I need to get my weight under control, and drop about 70 lbs.

    I had just dropped 45 lbs when I got into my new relationship at the beginning of last year, now I've gained it all back plus a few. Time to get back on track, wahhh! Haha. Thanks for the add!

    I am the same, I too eat when I am just relaxing and enjoying myself, I eat when I am stressed out because it's "comforting", and I eat when I am bored... So have been trying to fill my time productively. Hoping that at the very least, when I am lounging around, I'm not choosing to have snacks while at it! Hahaha
