    I am an emotional eater also. My weight yoyos back and forth. I want to do this for good. As difficult as it is to lose weight, it is keeping it off that is my biggest challenge.

    I totally agree with you. I was fine until something bad happened in my life and then all of a sudden I was gaining weight like crazy. I tend to eat a night, because I am bored and that is screwing my whole diet!!! I trying to drink mire water or tea, get busier, but it is a struggle!

    Third time's the charm! Or, at least, it has been for me so far. I'm a third-time returnee, actually sticking with it this time after quitting the previous times. Good luck with it!
  • I'm 33, 5ft 1in and need to lose 75-100lb. i yo-yo dieted my whole life and succeeded to lose between 35-50lb off and on, only to gain back more than I lost. I'm at my heaviest now and my doctor told me I would have to go on high blood pressure meds if I don't lose weight. I'm also in danger of becoming a diabetic. I cannot be on meds because of my weight at 33! I need friends to keep me motivated and stay on track. I think we can help eachother.

    I'm an emotional eater and binge eater. I've been working pretty hard on finding a healthy balance in life. You're more than welcome to add me.

    Hello. I am a binge eater also. A terrible one. Unfortunately I haven't been that good in admitting it to myself. My life is also very far from being in balance. But from tomorrow I am starting counseling. How are u dealing with all this?
