Hi zombieaddict (cool name btw)
Nice to meet you here! I'm a new member here just like you, trying to get more motivation to reach my goals. Good job on cutting out on soda, fast and refined foods - your body will thank you! It's probably been years since I've had a sugary soft drink just for the heck of it.
I understand when you say sometimes sticking to a healthy eating regime is hard for various reasons like work. I also feel like my social life takes a hit when I'm focusing on healthy eating, because all we do when we hang out with friends is eat out and drink!
A few days back I was borderline depressed and I automatically turned to food for comfort. I know thats not the done thing but it takes literally one instant for you to grab that piece of cake and gulp it down before realizing you made a mistake. By then its too late, your sugar has already spiked!
I guess all I'm trying to say is I can relate. Stay motivated and we'll all get to our goals!
