I cant say this is my recovery date, as I have not recovered from Over eating. This is a starting point in my journey to recovery. There will be ups and downs. I am 50 years old, but I have 2 birthdays according to my doctor. My real birthday is in November and the other birthday is in December. Let me explain. In 2009 I was diagnosed with end stage congestive heart failure. My only hope was a heart transplant. From August 2009 till December 2009 I was in the hostpital. I lived there, never left. In December I received the Gift of Life, and that, according to my heart transplat drs and surgeons, December 14. 2009 is my heart birthday.

Welcome learning.to.lose, 

We hope you reach your goals. Everyone of us need a good food plan. 

I just saw a good movie on netflix that made me very motivated to stop dieting and start eating right. I believe the movie is called "food matters".

This is a new beginning for me.  I am involved in AA so I will apply the same tools to this as I learn to accept myself and change my relationship with my phsyical self.  I have always struggled with weight my whole life and my goal is to be healthy.  I don't want to die of diabetes like my mother did nor do I want to sit on the sidelines of my life,especially since I have an active five year old.
