I have a fiance and beloved dog named "Romeo". I work in the mental health field as an advocate and love my job, but it is very stressful. I binge on donuts and cookies and candy. I have joined overeaters anonymous and find the spiritual approach enlightening. I love people and animals.

I just started college, and am liking it. All the stress of classes and being away from home though is starting to take its toll on me. I've been eating really badly, crazy binges on icecream/chocolate. I've also stopped exercising, because of the new routine - but i NEED to get back into it. I'm 5'3'' and just over 120 lbs. I'd like to be 115 lbs. I have always had a sweet tooth, and until my metabolism started slowing down it had never been a problem for my figure. But now it is, not to mention the overload of sugar is just not healthy.

I am currently 155 lbs. with binge eating tendencies. I would like to get down to 115 lbs.

I am the single mother of a son, 19 and daughter 17. I have been in a relationship with a wonderful guy for 9 years now. When we first met I had been on the "divorce diet" and looked great and felt good about myself. Now I have gained ALL the weight I had previously lost back and feel like a fat blob.

I am 27 year old and live in Northern New Jersey with my husband of 1 year. I am originally from NY (just north of NYC). I am a School Psychologist and work with elementary and middle school students. I love to do anything outdoors and travel. I am currently training for a marathon, and ran my second half marathon a few weeks ago. However, this has become more difficult since gaining weight over the past year since my wedding. I lost almost 20 pounds using a very low carb diet, which essentially made me very sick. That put my medium framed 5"6 athletic built body at the thinnest it ever was, 130 lbs. Although most family/friends said I looked too thin, inside I felt wonderful. Since coming back from our honeymoon, I put on about 15 lbs last year very quickly, and an additional 15 pounds at this point. I now weigh 160 and fee terrible. None of my work clothes fit, and I feel embarrassed to see people, for fear of what they will think of my body since my wedding. I wish I could just lose this weight already.

25 year old mother of a two year old. In my late teens/early twenties I was a health junkie, but somehow I fell off the bandwagon after my son's birth, an encounter with an autoimmune disorder (TTP) and lots of medical issues/depression related to that. I'm finally ready to start taking care of myself again!

I am 5'0 and have been battling with weight all my life. I love to exercise...that's not the problem. I also love to eat. Brownies and ice cream are my weakness. I tend to eat when I'm sad, happy or any emotion in between. I just want to get down to healthy weight and maintain.

Well, I'm presently a senior in High School but I feel like I'm on the path to a very dark place-obesity and depression. Anyway, I'm 5' 71/2" tall and I'm going on 160 pounds. I can't afford a gym membership or any expensive equipment so I'm pretty much limited to an old treadmill(that still works :)) and some other little things that I could use.
-I'll be living with my parents through college
-plan on going to Bellevue Community College/Bastyr in the Fall of 2010! So excited

From sleep deprivation to weight gain, I just need to get my health back and my favourite jeans back on!

Since my late 20's I've been gaining a comfortable 5 pounds per year. 30 pounds later, I am having so much trouble losing just 1 pound and keeping it off! I'm stepping up my workouts especially when my gym opens up.
