New to the Board, not to the Struggle.

  • Greetings all! Another newbie here. Not new to dieting, message boards, etc. Just new to this board. I lost 70 pounds 3 years ago. Made a lot of changes and was on my way to getting my life back. Then... slowly the suckiness of the daily grind wore me down and I medicated my depression with food. Now I have nearly 60 pounds to lose once again.

    Please believe me when I tell you that I am so beyond and over "dieting". I have been making life changes since the new year. I have worked my way to the "WOE" (Way of Eating) portion of my life changes.

    I am 40. I am a mother of 2. I am a full time office manager. I am a full time college freshman. I am a full time neurotic. I welcome any and all encouragement. I also welcome any recommendations for any groups, given my biographical information, anyone would think that I may fit into.

    Carpe Diem.
  • Hey there, and

    We have a great group called the "40-somethings", and you might want to hop in there. You might also want to check out our forum for those Dieting with Depression, as it can present unique challenges.

    In addition, we have groups by eating plan (are you counting calories? Focusing on whole foods? We have forums for those and other plans) and a whole lot of smaller challenges, so look around.

    Stick here and keep posting. Can't wait to get to know you better!
