Hi,

My name is Monica I need to get healthy. I'm 35 years old (two weeks from 36!) and I've pretty much been overweight for as long as I can remember. I was sort of a lonely child so I guess food was my friend. I turn to my "friend" anytime I feel sad or lonely but also when I feel happy and positive. I would pretty much rather eat than do anything else.

Below you will read about my virtual journey that I've started. I'm really proud of myself that I've actually been motivated to exercise. I try not to beat myself up when I fall off the wagon a little bit but I'm also trying to praise myself whenever I gain even the smallest sucess. It will be hard work and I think I'm finally ready!

Moving on ...
Monica
