Striving for progress, not perfection!!

Hello everyone!
As most of you on here, my goal is to lose weight and be comfortable in my own body. I'm a college student, so eating healthy and working out hasn't always been the easiest thing for me to do...especially with finals around the corner. But I'm ready to make a change. I want to eat healthier and make the time to work out. Not because I HAVE to, but because I WANT to. I struggle with binge eating and that's what holds me back the most. I want to develop a healthy relationship with food. I can't rely on food to fulfill my emotional needs, because in the end it only makes me feel worse.
Let's encourage each other to be the best we can be!!

    It's awesome you've recognized this at such a young age. I've been severely overweight most of my life, but 4 years ago decided I had enough of being tired and sick all the time. I've lost over 100 pounds by eating healthy and exercise. No gimmick diets or fads. Just determination, faith, and hard work!
