Back to Fitness Pal...

Hello, I am a 26 year old female living in Florida. 5'5, 260 lbs. I was anorexic in highschool and losing weight and restricting/eliminating eating was an obsession. Since recovering from anorexia, my weight has always been difficult to maintain since I have two modes, starvation or bingeing (this is fairly common with recovered anorexics). I successfully used the myfitnesspal calories counter app in the past to lose and maintain my weight. Back then, I only had maybe 20-30 pounds to lose so the process was fairly quick. After gaining substantial weight when I was pregnant with my son, and continuing to gain weight afterwards, I find myself with 100 extra pounds to lose. I am deciding to take full advantage of My Fitness Pal, including the community, to help me stay motivated in this process.

So, hello! I look forward to getting to know everyone and hopefully meeting some weight loss buddies.
