#strong chick

Decided to do a blog type thing about my current battle with sugar addiction and weight loss. Growing up , I was always a little chunky. Through high school it got worse and I eventually dieted to lose the weight I put on and I think at that point I was around 155 lb. still big for a teen but before I was pushing 200. After highschool I got a job at 7-11 and ate a lot of unhealthy things and ended up going up to about 245 or so. Found out it was a combo problem , poor diet , also I was diagnosed with Hashimoto's thyroiditis. My body had consumed my thyroid gland. Again I buckled down on the food and hit the gym , getting down to around 210. Then I moved to Calgary in 2004. I got eventually down to 198 or so. Keep in mind this whole time pretty much I am active. It's just my eating. So I let things slide again and as of about 4 years ago , I was 267 lbs. lost in spurts by calorie counting and exercise ended up down to about 180 last summer. So that brings me to the main subject of this. I have come to realize I have binge eating disorder. I am really struggling with it. Despite being very active , walking every day and attending boot camp 5 days a week I am again gaining weight. Up to about 205 again. My dream is to be a fit healthy trainer and this is going I be meant to share with anyone who wants to follow my struggle with my food addiction an my trials and triumphs!
