Looking for more friends since I am back to it and working on myself after a breakup

Hey all,
I have been around for many years just using the app on and off, but I have been making commitments over the years to change the way I treat food (recovering from eating disorders), and exercise. I have been making good steps in exercise and have been going swimming (the only exercise that really brings me joy), and well now I am trying to focus on me after a breakup, however cliche that might sound haha. Looking to make more friends, and have casual conversations to keep motivated. I would love to work towards being happy in my own body and feel like it is a capable body as well as eat more foods that make me feel great versus the ones that make me feel heavy (if that makes sense). Send me a friend request if you are looking for the same, or are working through a breakup (romantic/familial/friendship) and are focussing on yourself.

    Break ups suck and on top of it you lose a loved one same day. But it's always time to get back ME.

    @grantowi171 I have added you instead :smile:

    @InstepFitness haha 20lbs is amazing!! Totally get the lonely part though, I was reading your body reacts as if you have been without sunshine when breakup. Yay for being happy though!!

    @blevinsmichael06 definitely always time to get back to ME. Breakups do suck a lot and there is so much change following them. I wish I could hit fast-forward but will use it as motivation.
