My name is Meika. I'm 33 years old and I've had issues with my weight since I was young. After some traumatic things happened I turned to food to insulate and it's been my crutch ever since. I have managed several times to get the weight off but binging is a hard beast to fight off and I'd always return to old habits. In April I was diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes and it totally destroyed me. The realization of exactly what I had done to myself has caused me to take a step back and make some positive changes. Since April I have gone from 358 lbs to 333 and I'm on a good path. So now that I've found this site I feel like I can be accountable on here as well as on my Youtube journal.

Good luck to everyone and their journeys where ever they take you. :-)
