A New Me

edited September 18 in Introduce Yourself
For most of my life I battled anorexia and bulimia. Finally, I was able to put the eating disorder aside through therapy and many years of hard work on myself. Due to a certain medication, I gained 35 pounds back in 2004. Since then, I have not been able to get into a groove towards losing the weight due to being so down on myself.

My husband recently has lost 75 pounds. I'm so proud of him and admire him. He is my inspiration. If he can do it, I certainly know I can too. He is my main support person through this journey.

I am grateful I found this website. It will be a great tool for meeting my goals. I'm very determined to get back to my old self, in a healthy manner. And, I know I can do it if I set my mind to doing it.

I look forward to meeting many of you. The more support the better!

    Welcome to MFP. If you ever feel like you are not motivated come on this site and just read what people have to see. Normally it helps me to say I gotta go do this and I will go work out. It helps me on those days I am feeling lazy.

    Good luck!
