I have always struggled with feeling good about my body in general - If I look at old photos I was slim to normal as a teen but as soon as I moved out the weight piled on (mostly from partying).

My problem is I really enjoy food and it’s a passion of mine. But since I stopped smoking 4 years ago and I cut down on drinking - food is my only vice. When I am tired/stressed/upset/happy I dive straight for the carbs and tell myself I deserve it. I am always going to have a passion for food but I am hoping this site will give me a good indication of what is going down my throat instead of mindlessly shovelling and then wondering how bad it is going to be next time im on the scale!

I am also trying my best to exercise 6 days a week every morning – this is because I am chained to my desk at my job so I really need that extra help!
