stress eating.

sciatica
I was just diagnosed with sciatica. I was wondering if anybody else have good through this. I hate not being able to exercise, or even sitting for any significant tine with pain.

New to maintenance and would like friends to help keep the weight off
After 2 years and about 160 pounds lost, I have finally gotten to a healthy weight. This is a first for me, at least since hitting puberty. I am really anxious about not putting the weight back on, and keeping up maintenance since maintenance is uncharted territory for me.
