Hello, my name is Bethanie...

...and I'm a food addict.

Yes, really and truly. I am honestly addicted to food. Thoughts of food occupy at least 75% of my daily thought process, if not more. I am currently living to eat and not eating to live, which is where I hope to get.

I am a 31-year young wife and mother of two extraordinary children. I work two full-time jobs, I was going to two different schools full-time, and then raising the family and trying to get "me time". HA! So now I am on hiatus from school(s) and trying to focus that energy on getting healthy. I am at the heaviest I have ever been in my entire existance, even when I was pregnant each time I was no where near where I am now. I'm glad to have found this website and glad that there is a thriving and (seemingly) supportive eCommunity to be a part of. GO US!

H: 5'3"
W: 265 lbs
Goal: 100 lbs in 12 months.

We can get there!:smile:

    WELCOME! I understand how it feels to think about food way more than you should. I do the same thing. I feel like food controls my life. I am either determined never to eat it or I am determined to eat whatever I want. I just want to look at food in a healthy way. I am here for support! :smile:
