Hi everyone. So, I started using this website way back in 2012 (on a different account anyway, lol) to get into shape and it really helped as far as motivating me with the community aspect and I've gone from around 200lbs (at 5'2") to 125lbs. However, now I have some eating disorder related issues as far as binge eating I'd ideally like to get completely under control that developed within the first year or so. This year has brought me another epiphany that I need to get my act together.

I have prospects of becoming a personal trainer since fitness has become such a huge staple in my life and I want to help others. BUT considering I have issues with food still, I want to get that under control before I go into such a role, since I don't think it'd be the right thing to do to promote myself as this completely healthy person when I'm not in certain aspects. I am looking for some support to help me with portion control, can't believe after 6 years I'm still having issues with food. However, I am hopeful and I know so long as I have support and determination on my side, I can beat it. I hope some people will jump on board with me, I could really use your help in reaching my goals and obviously I'll support you as well! :)
