Default Losing half of me and finding myself again

Hi everyone!

I am 27 and I live in Canada.

Right now I am somewhere around 265 lbs, and I am only 5'2. I have gained a large amount of weight in the past few years and have been feeling really depressed about it. I have a history of bulimia, and in a way, letting go was the only way I knew to let go of the unpleasant compulsive parts of controlling my weight. I have trouble with MODERATION.

I am studying Theology at university (B.Th.) right now. I love my field and I am loving being back at school. What made me decide to make this change (again) is because my school is offering the chance to go on an archeological dig in Israel this summer, and it really hurt me to realize that I am way too out of shape to do things like this.

I live with a roommate in an apartment in the city. I have two adorable dogs that are my babies, and two sweet birds (parrotlets).

I am trying to eat according to the Canada food guide, because in addition to losing weight, I would really like to gain some energy. I am always tired, and I am sure that it's not normal to be THIS lacking in energy when I am still in my 20's.

Looking forward to meeting all you cool dudes!
