Hi Everybody,
I'm new here but sure am happy to have found this place. Long story short: 6 years ago I was working humanitarian aid in the Third World, in shape, strong, feeling great. Met the man of my dreams/got married. Came back to the states and gained a little weight but not much. 2 Yrs ago, man of my dreams cheated on me with best friend. I crashed. Have gained weight steadily and rapidly since and am now at 260, heart problems, high blood pressure and clinical depression. Went to doc last month and got started on antidepressants, bp meds and now have started dieting and taking xenical. I have a feeling I might become a fixture around here becuase I sure NEED y'all.
