Hello Everyone, I'm Karmiesha and I am on my way to eating healthy. I never had healthy eating habits, nobody in my family does. I just kinda got unlucky with the eating thing. My family deals with situations by having dinners and going out to eat. So it's normal to eat whenever I'm feeling something, be it happiness or sad times, I'm eating. I've tried diets before knowing if i lose weight fast it'll come right back on. I was Vegan for almost a month,my ultamate goal is to be Vegan. I felt soo amazing eating clean like that. But i think the time where I really realized that I need to change was maybe a week ago. I was having a long stressful week and I thought maybe i could eat and i would feel better (eating for me is like a five minute high) so I bought 2 large pretzals and the dipping pretzals, then i drove to taco bell and got two burritos and sat in an empty parking lot and ate until i felt like it was going to come out of my nose. That was the worst I've ever felt after eating, "yeah I always feel bad after eating" but this was an all time low and I knew i needed to change or it would soon become a habit. So here I am today trying to do this the right way and for my son, I really don't want him to think eating all day long and sneaking food is the norm. So I really need to get this under control before i let myself down big time by failing my son when it comes to healthy eating habits.

    Educating yourself on healthy eating is the best way to do it forever. You will benefit as will your child. Welcome and good luck on your new lifestyle.
