Hi Kermit, I just wanted you to know that I can relate so much to what you wrote. If you are Kermit, then I am Miss Piggy. So get this, I quit drinking 13 years ago, quit the drugs 5 years ago, and quit smoking cigs almost 2 years ago and gained 70 lbs. Yes, that is not a typo, I gained 70 lbs.
The worst part is that I just finished schooling to become a Trauma and Addiction counselor and like you I have no motivation for change right now, nor have I for quite a while. However based on my past addictions that I have conquered, I do know that in time I will be fed up of being fed up lol sorry for the bad pun.
Today I pray about it and try to love myself enough to quit the food insanity because my parents are both diabetics and my older sister had a heart attack 5 years ago.

Please hang in there, you are not alone and there are so many with much more weight than us.
Diana
