I just found this forum tonight, but I have been working on dropping weight for about 6 weeks now (-15 lbs so far!!!). I gained a lot of weight in the past four years, moving to and from canada (love TO), ending a long relationship, single parenting, work, school, basically life stresses. I stopped working out and started eating out, and I'm sure you can all guess how quickly the scale picked up pace! I have never been this large, or unhealthy, in my life and I am soooo depressed. I am on 4 different medications for depression, medication to sleep, etc.
I'm off work on medical right now and I am trying to use this time to turn my life around, and i believe that starts with getting back to a healthy weight. Much to my surprise (or really i should say my horror) that involves losing about 90 lbs!
I just moved back to the States so i haven't made any friends here but I am looking forward to getting to know you all
and making friends here!
