in Introduce Yourself
Hi my name is Kiashea. I am 20 years old. I have been trying to lose weight for 10 years now.
I am addicted to late night snacks and I also overeat. The biggest I ever weighed was 202 pounds (I know I was really fat).
I lost some weight and now I am 160.4 pounds. I know I lost some weight and I'm super happy about that but I'm falling off the wagon, and I started overeating again. :sad:
I really would like to lose 20 to 30 more pounds but I don't have any support from my family in trying to lose weight so I just give up easily on trying to lose. I really would like to have a weight loss buddy to help keep me on track.

    I'm sorry that you've been trying to lose weight since you were 10. That is so young, and it's sad that so many outside pressures can get to us at that age.

    Overeating (especially at night) has always been a huge issue for me. I try to drink more water at night to curve cravings. It works sometimes!

    Feel free to add me as a friend on here!

    I prefer TO eat my Fav. Vegetable/s if i am craving food before bedtime ( If something sweet then one big scoop of icecream and then talk to myself loudly ..like enough and close the freezer door . So far its working.

    It's hard work losing weight, but you're trying to take care of yourself and you should be proud of yourself for doing that. Don't let one bad day throw you off track. My snack time comes at the end of my work day (I'm an elementary teacher) and there are days that I could everything in sight if it weren't nailed down! I have figured out that I'm usually dehydrated by that time and drinking a large glass water of water helps to curb those cravings. Feel free to add me as a friend. Please don't give up on yourself!:happy:
