Hi Everyone, my name is Aimee and I have an addiction to sweets (cakes, cookies, etc) and I am hoping to cut them out of my diet, so I am able to lose some weight. My current weight is 225lbs and my goal is to be 140lbs. I suffer with a skin condition called Hidradenitis Suppurativa that makes it hard for me to exercise like a normal person. I truly hope that I can lose the weight for my health, and give myself more confidence!!!

    Welcome, Aimee! I am also a sugar addict and ever since I've been on this journey ..1-2 months , my addiction has gotten better. It takes time and consistency to see the changes. My advice take it one day at a time and don't buy the junk. Also make sure you eat filling food and remember that there are bad days but keep moving, don't give up!

    good luck! I weighed in at 224 this morning and have a similar goal weight. Just be consistent with your eating and workouts and you will see results (:
