Unhappy Starting Over

So, I had been doing South Beach diet for a while, I lost 16 pounds! Wow! Then I hit a plateau and remained steady, and then I went on vacation back home (where there is so much yumminess that I don't get to have normally) so I enjoyed, but it wasn't too bad, I didn't really gain. Well, I started anti-depressants again recently and there it goes I gained 7lbs back. I am so discouraged, so the past couple weeks I haven't been going CRAZY but I haven't exactly been dieting, because I need to figure out a game plan. The fact that my meds cause weight gain is a HUGE obstacle, I need help so I figured I'd check this place out and hopefully someone else is in my situation and can offer some guidance. I'm not proud that I have to take these meds, but at the same time I'm not ashamed to admit I need the help. It's severe clinical agitated depression along with anxiety, it's chemical and genetic, so it's not like I choose to suffer from this. Anyhow so here I am, ready to start again, because I want to feel good about myself, look good for my husband (even though he always says I'm sexy & beautiful and loves me the way I am, thank God for him) and well I want to try for another baby soon so I'd like to get in shape for that, I mean I'm going to gain again but I'd rather gain from a much lower weight than add even more to this one lol Look forward to sharing my journey with all of you!
