Default Hello Everyone!

I've been lurking for a few weeks now and finally decided to join. This seems to be such a supportive community. I decided to start getting healthy two years ago. I was over 350 pounds and a binge eater. I also was struggling with depression and anxiety.

I'm happy to report that now I am down to 230 pounds, my binges are fewer and farther apart and my depression and anxiety has gotten much better too! I still have some weight to lose but I'm trying to concentrate on being healthy and happy and letting the weight come off as a pleasant "side effect"

Both my psychiatrist and therapist told me I should try to find some sort of online support group and I agreed. I'm so happy to have found this place.

So Hello Everyone

I'm recovering from BED too and my therapist said the same, go figure they might be on to something, lol. It is a wonderful support and a huge part of the success I've had.

Welcome aboard.
