Hi everybody  . I’ve been lurking here for a few days and decided I needed to talk!
About me – I’m 37, 5’8” and need to lose about 95 more pounds. I began gaining weight around 8 years old. I was a chubby kid, a fat teenager and now an obese adult. At my highest weight I weighed 315. That was a few years ago, I somehow managed to get down to 281 without doing anything. Go figure. In the past few weeks I’ve begun eating mostly whole foods and have kept my caloric intake at about 1200 cals/day. I just can’t take this weight anymore!
Unfortunately that fury I felt and the beginning of this new journey is beginning to wane. I still believe that I can accomplish what I need to; this time feels far different from the previous weight loss attempts. Right now my food addiction has gone from a dull murmur in the back of my head to roaring. (I swear, if I treated heroin the way I treat food I would have been committed years ago!)
Anyway, I’ve noticed that you guys are supportive and have great tips, so I think this is the place I need to be.
