TY everyone for the acknowledgment and encouragement-- I am pretty darn excited!! I want to add, though that I am FAR from my "ideal" as far as eating patterns go--- I have a lot of work to do around food and body image. I have days where I don't eat all day hardly and then binge at night. I have other times when I eat past full or don't make good choices--- this is a journey full of potholes and the occasional wrong turn-- do not want to give the impression it is all smooth sailing--- it isn't. But it is made a lot easier with all of the support I get here. Smoochies to you all!0

Theda, your honesty in this post is why so many in this group look at you as a mentor. You have been (and continue to be) incredibly honest and transparent in your posts.
Changing a lifelong relationship with food is hard. The easy part of this journey is losing weight. The hard part is to recognize the why and then change. And you are killing it!
