a brief introduction

Hello! My name is Kelly & live in Vermont with my darling husband and our three bad cats.

I’ve had weight issues all my life. I had a pretty serious case of bulimia in my 20’s. I never wanted to weigh myself again after that, and my weight went up and down, but usually “up”. The thought of dieting or structured exercise felt too dangerous… I feared that the eating disorder demons would rise up again. In short, I have not taken care of my body for most of my adult life. McDonald’s, lots and lots of chocolate, fried food, milkshakes… pretty much describes my general diet for a long, long time.

I’m married to a man who loves me fat or thin, through thick and thin, and it’s a wonderful feeling. I’m now focusing on finding some of that “thin”, since I haven’t had it in a while. Wait– was I ever thin? It’s been so long I can hardly remember!
