New Wind

I've gotten my second wind! I sat down and did some soul searching after watching a program about obesity last night. I wanted to nail down whether or not weight loss is something I really want for my life. I also wanted to count the risks and discomforts it would cause, and I decided it was very much worth it.
I love food. I know I had hypothyroidism and that's what caused me to balloon to 191 pounds, but I was also eating atrociously. I found a before picture I had my husband take at my heaviest...wow. What a second wake up call. If I don't get things straightened out and in gear, I will be right back where I was, or worse. I need to deal with my relationship to food. I definitely use it as a comfort. I need to find other ways of finding comfort during the stressful times.
All in all, I feel good right now. I feel like I'm getting things back on track and I'm heading in the right direction.
