New here as of tonight

[Torrent]

Hello!

I am a newbie, as of this evening. I admit I am addicted to food and use it to deal with a myriad of emotions. I have recently come very close to establishing my goal weight, having lost nearly 50 pounds over the last three years, so although I appear "successful" on the outside, the struggle is all within.

I am hoping to soak up some wisdom and learn from experiences within this forum. And if nothing else, come for inspiration when I can find none inside. Tomorrow will be day 1 of abstinence for me. :)

Thank you all in advance for any insight or comments you may have.

Dear Torrant.

Congratulations on taking your first step I started a week ago & had felt great for about 5 days (which is great for me) then I started to slip, as i felt alone with no one to share. I would love to help someone & in return receive the same.

I am living in Italy at the mo. but I am English. I have no one I can talk to about this. I would love to have a buddy on here. Let me know

Best of luck!
