Hi. I'm a 47 year old wife, mother, worker, and general mulit-tasker
I have been battling both depression and my weight for the better part of 25 years. I'm not really sure which of my issues is the real problem. I have been part of a really great (and really expensive) gym for the last 3 months. The trainers are great, the groups of women are amazing, and the workouts are hard but exhilarating. A reasonable meal plan is provided. And yet, I have made zero progress. I can't stay on the meal plan because I'm a compulsive eater. I made a deal with my husband that I would quit smoking to pay for the gym. So now I'm fighting both of my addictions at the same time. I'm in such a funk that I haven't been to the gym in 10 days, my house is a disaster, and I'm not interested in Christmas which is normally huge for me. I have a host of motivational tools and resources at my fingertips but I can't seem to get to a place where I care right now. I'm self-destructing.
