Hello Everyone,

I'm new to both CK and the group... I started with CK 3 weeks ago and have had a great start to my weight loss. The first time in my life that I've been heavy has been for the past year and a half, about. I've never been overweight before then (but did struggle with weight related issues due to eating disorders) so now I feel like I'm in this body that doesn't belong to me. I gained because I went into deep depressions and started bingeing, on top of being on many medications that are said to contribute to weight gain. I am, however, doing so well with this effort to lose the weight for good, and I'm so excited because I'm making huge steps.

And yes, I'm a twenty-something as well.

Looking forward to getting to know you all!

Hi Kaleigh,

Congrats on your commitment! I've had lots of success with this program, it will work if you follow it. I went from 162 to 136 while quitting smoking, unfortunately I moved somewhere new after reaching my goal weight and fell into some binge-type eating myself because of stress/depression. What a frustrating cycle that is! I'm losing again now though!

That's good that you've done it once and you know it works for you. Good for you for coming back from the binge cycle and committing yourself again. I wish you well!
