Hi!
I just joined and I'm delighted to see there is a group for us. I'm a little disappointed that there are so few members and so little activity; I have a feeling we could all use more support.
So about me. I'm not too heavy (yet) but I'm absolutely obsessed with food. I wake up in the morning thinking about what I'll eat that day. I look forward to my husband being out of town so I can eat whatever I want. I love to cook, love international recipes and restaurants. I'm not actually that into "junk food" in the home but I do sneak out to fast food about once per week.
I think my main problem (currently) is the meat thing. I can't seem to keep away from it but, for me, eating meat is morally wrong. It's really causing me a lot of turmoil.
I would like to lose the 15 pounds that has gradually crept onto my backside. I've got the exercising down; I just need better control over my food habits. *sigh*

Re: Hello everyone!
Sun, July 15, 2007 - 11:23 AMWelcome Blue. I am also a little bummed at the low traffic in this tribe... and people are still joining. So I have hope.
What kind of support do you want?
Are you in (or have you been in) a 12-step program?
Kind regards,

Re: Hello everyone!
Mon, August 27, 2007 - 1:23 PMHi. I just found you guys....and just joined. Great to find you here. I am also hoping to find (and give) support to others. I am a compulsive overeater. I balance it out and am not terribly overweight because I try to compensate with exercize. Some days are worse than others. I can control it at times and then I fall off the wagon and can't stop..then the guilt builds and I feel the pressure to run 6, 7, 8 miles. I shouldn't HAVE to do that every day to keep in shape.
Glad to know you are all here.

Warmly,
Sage
