    Your story is something familiar. I really can understand you. My bad relationships made me doing similar stuff. But we need sometimes God's hand I think, to realize how unique and great we are, to start loving ourselves, at least it helped me out in my situations cause I was missing the person up to a huge down and missed his love, but learning to love myself I started feeling better. You are doing an amazing job and keep up doing it. Your motivation is always in your heart and the daily results will make it stronger. Don't stop being great

    Really inspiring to hear how you're pushing through the mental and emotional barriers! I used to drink alcohol to deal with stress/anxiety/depression. I've been alcohol-free for about a year now and confronting the feelings which I used to try and run away from/suppress. Keep up the great work buddy! You're doing great!

    I feel for you! Our son died shortly after birth and eventually I fell into a deep depression. Medication, couldn't care less attitude, eating etc. and I ended up on 170 kg (374 pounds). After 15 years I decided to take myself off medication - sloooowly. That took me about 3 months and did not get any medical support at all. That was about 2 years ago and now I am tackling my weight. I started about 2 months ago and with myfitnesspal I am making progress. I have re - joined the gym and go for a walk nearly every day. Initially I managed about 2 km, by now I can do 4 or 5 km. Family support is important, taking it day by day and food portion control is something I have to learn. Every person needs a different approach and so far I have found a meal plan I am happy with - no urges, no addiction, no binge eating, no secret eating, no anxieties. Myfitnesspal and the greater community is very, very important: Write down what worries you - there is huge support out there. We can do it - meal by meal, day by day.

    Great job! Keep it up! My coworker and I started going to the gym at 5am and use this app. Counting the calories and entering food I think helps you realize what you can and should eat all the time. We both sit at a desk all day long and when we are bored we would eat. No more of that. I started the metamucil challenge as well. That seems to help too. #getthepoundsoff #youcandoit

    Wow congrats to you for making that positive change!! Keep moving forward and you’ll reach your goal in no time!!! My story is similar but it involved the death of my child, my weight spiraled out of control when I lost him, but have been doing great the last few months.

    Bits and pieces of your story seemed very similar to mine. You can do this. Stay focused on your goal. And if you need support, please don’t hesitate to add me. We could all use a little motivation.

    Seems like every-one has a rock bottom period & it makes us step-up to the challenge to be the best we can be. Mine happened in January when I was 35lbs over-weight. I have shed the 35lbs & feeling great about my-self. :)

    Keep up the good work man you can do this!!
