As the title says really. I'm currently almost 355lbs and use food as a coping mechanism for my mental illness. Forgotten what its like to be able to move without being in pain. Need to lose 200lbs. One step at a time. All friends welcome

    I am sending you a friend request now. I started with about 170 pounds to lose and am only down 23 so far. I did lose about 100 pounds a few years ago on mfp, but unfortunately I turned to old habits of letting food be my comfort and gained it back.
