My name is Lauren and I live in Queens, in New York City.  I’ve suffered from depression since at least 1996, and I’ve been binge eating since 1988.  Since 2000, I’ve been at a healthy weight for once for 20 months.

I’m trying to get back to a healthy weight, feel better about myself, and be a positive role model for my two young daughters. I work outside the home and I have a supportive husband, but I feel like there’s never enough time!
