Hi everyone! My name is Lucy. I'm new on this website. I've never really done anything like this, but I feel like nothing else will work. I need support and my family and friends are just too busy. I am 19 years old, am 5'4, and weigh 190 lbs. I used to weigh 200 about 2 months ago but started working out and lost about 15 lbs. I went off of that diet/ workout routine and gained about 5 lbs back. I really need some motivation! I pretty much know what I have to do but some new recipes, motivation, and workout routines would really help! I just feel like I'm addicted to food. I overeat so much and I feel so helpless when I do it. I don't know how to stop. HELP!

I know what you mean about needing support. Without it coming from somewhere, it's so easy just to stop all of the good work.
I feel exactly the same as you. I'll eat something, then wonder what good it did me. Sometimes I feel proud for eating well for a few days, but then I'll just undo all of the hard work.

Exactly! I'll do good for a while and "treat" myself to something bad and then I just let it all go from there. I figure if I eat one bad thing I might as well stop dieting alltogether, when that is not how it should be! I am going to try dieting and working out regularly and visiting this site often! I feel like if i get motivation from people that I will not want to quit because I feel like I will be letting everyone else down, not just myself! Let's see if this works!

Well I hope it does work for you this time.
Hi Lucy and Welcome!
I recently have had success with weight loss for the first time in many years and one of the first things I have learned is to change the way I looked at food and I can tell you are looking at food the way I used to.
You will find a lot of support here, so all the best.
