Introducing myself

Hi! My name Is Sue and I am finally serious about losing fat again. I used to live an Atkins lifestyle and slimmed down. I stopped being careful and gained a bunch of weight back (a lot of the eating was emotional, I admit). I've been trying to restart for a while and decided to focus on LCHF this time rather than specifically Atkins.
Random Sue bits:
I'm an urban high school English teacher so I stress a lot.
I'm married to an Episcopal priest so I encounter a lot of unhealthy foods.
I'm competitive, so seeing other people do well motivates me to do well too. (Hence my FitBit)
I'm feeling alone in this, which is demotivating and why I'm seeking community.

Teaching is a huge factor in my own stress eating. It doesn't help that there tends to be a lot of sugary and carby foods at work.0
