Erica Figtree

I am the single mother of an 8 year old. I haven't been on a date in 4+ years. I'm an emotional & stress eater. I eat because I'm lonely, stressed out, and unhappy with my weight, which, obviously, makes me fatter. I've lost a lot of weight twice before in my life ... once eating nothing but top ramen, which actually sounds good right about now. Despite all the weight, I think I'm beautiful. Unfortunately, our society tells us otherwise. I feel like I have to lose weight to get a life. Realistically, too, I can't be very healthy, another reason to get serious. Joining this site is my way of getting serious! But not too serious ... Other than all that, I'm a happy gal!
