Hi Everyone, My name is Sherri. I joined this site a few weeks ago but didn't feel comfortable posting my intro until I actually started my journey. I have NOT been overweight my entire life, was thin as a child, gained some weight with pregnancies, then lost it, then gained it again. Lost again, kept it off for awhile when I was single. After my 2nd marriage I have gradually gained about 80 pounds and weigh more than I ever have. I lost 50 pounds last year but have gained it back again after losing my job! Ugh! I've been depressed and feel like I am getting deeper and deeper in a rut. I feel like I'm in a vicious cycle. Worry and stress over getting a job and I know that being obese only hurts my job opportunities.....and then I eat some more because I am depressed. Anyway, I made it through today!!! Wish me luck, I want to be one of you maintainers someday. Thanks
