HI! I'm new to this site/msg board. Just wanted to say hello :)
I've struggled with weight ups and downs in the last 5 years (mostly due to car accident I was in)
but i'm in a new place. My spirit of will has returned as well as motivation and i'm here to keep myself on track and hopefully cheer on others and make some new friends.

While i'm quite active now, I realize i'm a stress eater. the stress of my experiences have gotten me here... 60 lbs from where I'd like to be. Having gone through a series of life altering experiences in a couple of short years, well I see now how I let go and let stress.

(Paul McKenna, was anyone watching that ? i definitely support the 'conscious eating' theory ..as well as EFT for stress release)

Best wishes in your personal goals!
I always tell myself..
No matter what happens at the end of the day, you can always get up and start new /fresh in the AM ;)

    Congratulations on your road to improve your life. I, too, was in a car accident 7 years ago......I can walk now, but during the time when I couldn't walk, I gained 50 pounds. I was at 150 pounds and my weight ballooned to 200 pounds.

    I discovered this website and very excited about the tools to track my progress.

    Take care.
