Thank you so much for sharing your story…it rings so many bells and makes me feel not stupid for sharing some elements of your journey. I am so proud of what you’ve achieved and it really helped me affirm the positive upward journey I am on myself.

Such an inspiring, great story and I’m so happy to have found you!!! I found the link to your blog on Laury’s site and I’m so excited to start following along your pregnancy journey as well – congrats!! I 110% relate to your story and led a similar path 5 years ago. It was my then boyfriend, now husband, who showed me the light and taught me how to love myself again, and look at food as energy and sustenance instead of the devil. I don’t know where I’d be today if it weren’t for him, and it sounds like you have the same thing in your amazing husband and I’m so happy for you We’re actually trying to get pregnant and have been for awhile…because of my past I’m dealing with hypothalamic amenorrhea since going off birth control pills, so now with lowered exercising and maintaining my weight of 140 lbs., I hope to see a period soon! I was wondering too if you had trouble regaining your cycles and with getting pregnant b/c of your past struggles? If it’s a private matter I understand, or you can shoot me an email Congrats again and I’m so excited to follow you along this journey!!

I stumbled upon your site when I was looking for a good granola bar recipe and YUM! It was delicious! But then I started poking around your page and you have a really inspirational story and awesome recipes! I have a few on my list of recipes to bake! First on my list is those donuts, but I have yet to find a donut pan sadly. Once I do those are so going in my oven! I just wanted to say you have a wonderful site and have been enjoying reading your posts! Thank you!

Thanks for sharing your story!!! I have a similar story in that it took my now-husband to help me get on track with my healthy eating. I was just eating way too much of the bad stuff and it packed on the pounds. I’m the same height and hit almost the same weight as you. I’ve lost 30 pounds and have maintained my healthy weight for awhile now. It feels so good to be healthy!!

Erin, having gone through most of college with you I had no idea you were going through this. Although I will always have the memory of you eating grape fruit daily because you said it was so healthy. I’m so glad you have found balance with your diet and exercise. Definitely something that everyone could work on I’m sure. Glad to see you are doing so well, and how much you love dietetics! I’m very happy for you!
