Hi,
I'm 39, I turn 40 on the 21st of November, I have been overweight most of my teenage years and all of my adult life, I thought the weight would protect me from unwanted advances from men, I was severely molested when I was growing up and my weight had become a safety zone for me so to speak.
Well now I am in a more stable place in my life and I desperately want to get this weight off, I am definitely an emotional eater, but I also go in the opposite direction where I won't eat a full meal for several days but will continue to drink fluids.
