    Hey. I'm in a similar boat. I'm also short, not that much of a difference than you weight-wise, and I have a tendency to eat when I'm bored or anxious. It's going to be really hard to do this right now--this is the most stressful time of year at my work, as well, so I'm totally gonna want to eat.. (Oh, and did I mention that I'm going to try to stop biting my nails as a New Year resolution as well? lol.) Anyway, best of luck to you. I think our success will lie in finding "replacement therapy," lol. I have found in the past before that knitting and crocheting keeps me from nibbling. What are your hobbies?

    I started back on MFP about a month ago - I'm about the same size as you. I'm 5'3 and started at 201 but now at 193. You can do this. Feel free to add me as a friend.
