Looking for on-line support from other moms

[messpark34]

Hi, I am new to this board...I am a stay at home mom of a 2 yo daughter...I am looking to maybe get some on-line support from moms or others in similar situations such as myself...I want/need to loose some unwanted lbs. and cannot seem to do it...I restrict my calories to the point that I can't take it after a week or so and then binge eat...I live in a colder climate, where it's hard to get out and do things, but I do manage to exercise some during the week, but with the way I eat, the exercise doesn't do any good...I eat out of being lonely a lot of the time, due to my husband's work schedule, he is not home a lot, I eat out of bordem because there isn't much to do in my area, and I eat due to stress!...So, just looking for others in similar situations that maybe can provide some support and maybe I can do the same for someone else...thanks!

I am not a mom but did go through similar things. Problems at work, stress would lead me back to my ED. Have you ever thought of trying a support group?

Yeah, I have thought of it and checked into some groups in my local area, but I have my daughter 99% of the time and she is at that age where she will not sit still in a meeting/group with me...And I also try and justify to myself that I don't need to go to support groups, but know it would help...
