New to this

Hello, I got on the scale and was appalled by my weight gain. Definitely an emotional eater. Looking to meet people for encouragement. The hardest is when you want to fill something and have comfort and taste to make you feel good. At my place of work there is always temptations to reward your self in the moment. I'm using this site to help me be successful in just the first 20lbs loss. After that I will make my next goal in weight loss. I want to make it as simple and realistic as possible to insure success. The total weight loss I need is too overwhelming.
