Cool Hi.

So, I am kind of new to this forum type thing. Guess I should say Hi first. I am Chrys a Colorado resident, 30 years old and about 130lbs over weight. I've been on and off diets since I was 13, failed every time. My problem? Food. Food and the inability to say no to it.

Someone suggested overeaters anonymous to me, but seeing as I am at the point I never leave my house anymore, I decided to try the online forum thing. Time I admitted sometimes you can't do it alone, and found a tiny bit of support and motivation. Maybe the knowledge of knowing I'm not the only one with a problem will help me get to where I want to be.

Thanks.

Hi Chrys!



I too am over 100 lbs over weight. There are 2 forum sections on the main page that might urge you forward. Scroll down to "chicks in control" and there is a sub category of..."Overeaters Anonymous" ..so killing 2 birds with 1 stone so to speak.

There are some great resources and awesome member here who are very helpful...feel free to roam around in here and comment where you want....we don't bite

Hi Chrys!

I know that right now, 130 seems like a lot. BUT...you don't have to do it all at once. You just have to make one good decision at a time, and over time, they add up.

So make your next decision a good one, and then build from there. You CAN do this! I'm so glad you've found us!
