Greetings fellow chickadees!
I'm a twenty five year old graduate student in Berkeley, CA. My starting weight is 400 pounds, and my goal weight is 150. I'm a compulsive overeater, and I'm following the Overeater's Anonymous plan plus twelve steps. I've been to one meeting, and I plan to start going regularly this week. I'm excited and ready to work hard and make a seriously change in my relationship to food.
Here's a little bit more about me: I'm a total nerd and my ideal Saturday night is spent curled up with a book (roaring fire optional). I have a gorgeous German Shepherd Dog named Ava and two cats named Pan and Mose. I'm glad to be here. This is my first post, but I've been lurking all day reading up on some of the threads. There are so many successful and brave people, I thank god that this forum exists. I hope to meet more of you and have fun on our respective journeys to weight loss!
