Jodie! I just wanted to say, way to go for taking the steps to change your lifestyle 
There is also a support group of people who are feeling depressed and working to lose weight, as well as "Chicks in Control", which is more about struggling with binge-eating/overeating.. though realistically I think many of us on 3FC have struggled with overeating at some point or another so I imagine many people will be able to relate.

Never be afraid that you are on your own, whenever you come here you will find others that, while they may not have every one of your "problems" to deal with, they will have some of them .. plus extras of their own lol .. so whatever happens know that others here will know exactly where you are coming from ... and even those that may not .. they will give you soooo much support and encouragement. Get to know us by letting us get to know you ... even if its a boring "nothing happened" day, drop on in to say hi ... and if you need a buddy (Im available) just ask .. its a great thing to have a buddy when you arent too sure about posting publicly when things go wrong in your day .. but you really want to talk about it We dont just discuss our issues with food .. cos really .. when it comes down to it .. SOMETHING ELSE triggered the food issues and bottling those things up or feeling like no one would understand you just triggers more bad eating habits. So if you are having personal issues or problems dont think we dont want to know ... there is soooo much support on here ladies that really you cant help but feel like you are living with virtual hugs around you 24/7. ) .. once you get to the end you will see a bunch of code to copy (highlight the whole lot in the first box) then go back to your "edit signature" page and pop it in the text box, if you want to see what it looks like before you post it just click on the preview box at the bottom .. once you are ok with it .. SAVE it! lol .. then you wil lhave a lovely ticker to track your progress glad you found us. I hear you on the trying to diet while suffering with depression. Are you on any meds to help you with it? I have had depression for 4 years and for most of that time the meds I were on actually didn't help much at all. Dieting was a nightmare, and exercising, well it was non existant. Hard to exercise when you just wanted to be in bed sleeping. I finally got the right meds in April and since then my life hasn't been the same. I am like a new person, including how I look because my weight loss has really taken off. So, if you aren't on any medication, perhaps you should look into it because personally I think dieting is hard enough normally, but mostly too hard for people whose depression isn't under control
