My body may be big, but I bet my heart is even bigger <3
Hi, my name is "D" and I'm a 'food-a-holic. I love to eat...all of the time: when I'm bored, when I'm sad, when I'm happy... Food is my comfort, my escape, my freedom. And I don't want that anymore... I don't want food to control my life, after all this is MY life and I need to make a change for the better. I need to change my eating habits. I need to let out the confident, sexy, independent woman that is hiding behind all of this fat. I NEED HELP! I need motivation, reassurance and someone who can believe in me. In fact, I need to believe in myself. I know how much I want and need to change, but I also know that I give up way to easily... I feel that if I have someone who can help me stay motivated, and share with me their personal struggles and strengths that it could help me a lot... I'm also hoping to make great friendships throughout this whole process. XoXo- "D"

Hiya! Im 'I'
I am a foodaholic too...I love junk food its like a drug I totally love it all and my stomach shows how much I love it as well and I hate that with a passion...Like you I dont want food to control my life..I NEED HELP and motivation too ...I want to buy sexy clothes and feel like a hot chick lol...
Today is probably not the greatest day to start because it is so close to Xmas BUT I figure today is as good as any day to at least challenge myself to lose weight and start eating healthy and exercising...and if I slip up over xmas then I can jump back on the wagon...
Today I ate fairly healthy for me anyway...I drunk a breakfast drink 95% fat free..grilled salmon steak on greek salad minus the cheese...and chicken and avacado in a small french stick...and I did an hour of aqua jogging which I plan on doing daily until I get a bit fitter and game enough to enter fitness classes lol...
Perhaps we can motivate each other??? We can certainly try ???
Hi, Kiwigirlnz aka "I" haha, nice to meet you We most certainly can try to motivate each other!!! You're right...it's almost Christmas, and seeing all the tasty food will sure be tempting. But with a little motivation hopefully we can get through it Hi, Daimere...Thank you for the welcome Nice to meet you as well.

You sound like me. I loved food, I STILL LOVE FOOD. It's hard, but doable, even if you are a food-lover
You also have a great attitude: you love yourself and you want to get fitter and eat better! wonderful!
We're all here for you; everyone knows what it's like to struggle.
Hi guys, I'm new to this forum too! I need to make a change to my lifestyle for the good before it spirals out of control. It feels out of control already as I have put on 30lbs since January this year and I feel like sh*t to put it bluntly!
I am so passionate about food and I am not going to let that change, because that is part of me but I feel like I need to reduce portion amount and become passionate about other things as well ie. EXERCISE!! haha
I have had a treadmill in my garage for 2 years, it is time to dust it down!!!
So hello again! Lets face this New Year head-first!!!

Hi! Well done on your weightloss, very inspirational! I've promised myself I will never go over 200lbs. I have a holiday in August 2012 so I'm striving to get as close to my goal of 145lbs as possible.
1st goal 5% of my weight = 10lbs
2nd goal 10% = 20lbs
Then I will re-evalute my goals after I have reached these Fingers crossed x
Yeah sounds great
So did you start your diet and exercise plan today?
Well...not really... I have been trying to eat healthier the past week, eating mostly salads and grilled chicken, and I did one day of Zumba. But I haven't really been going all out. I need to make a trip to the grocvery store and buy some fresh fruits, veggies and helthy stuff. But that's no excuse for the no exercise... I just need to get focused
