What's the deal with the obsession of sweets?
Okay, so I've noticed that a lot of people with binge-eating problems really go after sweets. I am definitely a love of sweets but it's hot and cold for me.

Back on board!
I left for a while. There was SOME cheating but luckily I offset it by eating lower calories here or there. I started a new job which offers all kinds of free food which is mostly unhealthy, but some of it isn't. I haven't been logging and sometimes I eat too many calories and have binge-y type behavior. The other day I…

New Girl Here
I'm Lacie. I've struggled with weight and self-esteem almost my entire life. I've lost a bit of weight (around 100 lbs in fact) but at least some of that is due to muscular degenerative disease which makes exercising particularly challenging.
