3rd Time Back Here

I've had an on and off MFP account for years and I asking everyone for help once again. A year ago I was at slimmest and healthiest I have ever been, but I slipped and I got addicted to drugs. I'm recently sober but I've gained 40lbs as a result. So I'm back again. I also benefited from the mutual support on here so I would love some new friends. Also, I would love to read some people's food journals so I can get inspiration on how to actually feed myself.

    I was drinking too much myself. How have you been holding up with doing good workouts and being peaceful?

    Congrats on beating the habit. I'm also a 'returning' customer to this site after a number of years.

    It's really brave of you to put your previous addiction out there. It's an important part of the recovery process. Well done mate.
