Thank you for posting your story, It is much like mine, but then again, I have heard my own story of alcohol abuse over and over again, it is just that I also did the food adiction also, and it is wonderful that you have reached goal. I also overeat legal foods, as a food addict will, but so far I am still losing. I love that you set a sensible weight for your height also, I am 5'8 and have often been asked why i did not set a lower weight, but I try to make healthy choices for myself today.
