Hi. I desperately need help.

hi. I have done this before. I lost over 116 lbs. I was just 25 away from my goal. Then I got sick. Well, I'm always kind of sick with chronic illnesses. I had to go on meds that put 40 lbs. back on me. Then I got depressed and I'm just going backwards. I have absolutely no willpower and I just wish I had someone, a buddy, to help me. To talk me out of eating. I'm also a cook and food writer so that makes it tougher. It's portion-control that I'm worst at and I know I'm trying to fill a void. I eat until I feel sick like I used to. I'm 48, not able to be very active, I don't get to go out much. I know I sound pathetic but I could really us a friend. I need to lose about 100 lbs. again.

Count me in your story sounds a lot like mine as I have lost 25 lbs on my fitness pal only to lose focus/ have life happen and fall back on emotional eating or feeling not quite "good" enough to watch my eats0
