Hi Everyone,
This is my first time posting to the group, but I thought I should try and reach out. I recently had a doctor's appointment and realized that I've gained about 110 lbs in the past 14 years! This was shocking, although I knew I weighed a lot, to see how it came on was really sobering. I'm looking to lose this weight and have been off and on with my weight loss efforts over the years. I find it tough to do it alone and would love to have an accountability partner. Maybe someone with similar goals or someone who has had some success in this area? The other thing I should mention is that I've also been struggling with Major Depression for the past 14 years (hence the weight gain) and most recently have had a relapse back in February. I'm on the mend, but not 100%. I imagine it would be most helpful to do some kind of daily check in, as my motivation level is pretty low and I know myself well enough that I would fall off without some kind of daily support.
I'm asking for a lot, so no worries if this isn't your cup of tea I live abroad, in France, but have an amazing cell phone plan so I can text via Whatsapp for free, iMessage for free and of course, email. Let me know!

Hi! I have a little over 100lbs to lose as well. I know all about dealing with depression and how it relates to food. I have had success with weight loss here and there over the years. Recently, I have lost 29 lbs. I still have a long way to go and I'm just getting started with this app. I also got a Fitbit for Christmas, so I hope that helps with fitness. I don't know how to add people yet, so please feel free to add me. I also have whatsapp.0
