Hello from a newbie!

Hey guys! I'm Kay, and this is my first time here on MFP. Not my first time losing weight, though... I lost 25 kg (so almost 4 st) a few years back, but unfortunately I put it all back on. My relationship with food is pretty tricky - I have tendencies for binge/comforting eating; plus I spend most of my days in an office where there is a huge stash of free chocolate bars and soft drinks almost directly behind me.

I'm only on Day 2 of my diet, but it still feels like a milestone - yesterday was the first day in almost a year when I DID NOT give in to my cravings. I would normally come home, make myself a big bowl of cheesy chips and then snack on crisps/chocolate later in the day. But yesterday I got back from work, resisted snacking before dinner (my biggest weakness), and then later in the evening when I started getting the sugar cravings, I manage to mute them by drinking a couple of mugs of green tea.

So yes, only one successful day so far but it feels like a milestone already. This is going to be a long journey, but I've done it before, I can do it again, I hope. Reading MFP for tips and advice has been really helpful so far. Thanks for reading, and if anyone would like to be friends, let me know!
