I used to be 170lbs. After a rough 5 years of stress and heartache i have balooned up to 250lbs and i have gotten a severe nighttime binge eating habit. i also rely way too much on weed to deal with stress which has not helped my night time bad eating habits. i am starting this new year with a resolution to lose the weight and gain my self confidence back. i am new to my fitness pal and would love some help.

    Just sent you a friend request. I'm getting re-started in 2017. Looks like I left MFP put a few pounds back on and now realize I need to maintain a routine. Wondered if you would be interested in adding me as a friend.

You can too! Let's do this! I'll request you- I'm not quite sure how to do that but I'll figure it out! Not so techie...

    I also have a hard time with over eating at night. I have a very stressful job so I will just come home and start snacking and over thinking everything. I actually did find a natural supplement that helps me calm down (and no it's not weed), L-theanine. It helps without making you drowsy or give you the munchies. Maybe this will help you relax a little.

    Sending a request! Looking to lose ~70 lbs. Just recently rejoined MFP after some failed attempts and have found adding friends is a great way to stay motivated. I tend to overeat at night too!

    Very similar case here, i've lost 40 lbs to 150lbs 3 years ago when my kid is around 2 yrs old, then gain my weight to almost 200lbs now and my goal to 150lbs again this year!!
