    I just want to say thank you to you both for your kind words. I felt like losing weight would be the hardest thing I'd ever have to do, but I've quickly found that battling depression has been and will be much harder. But if, no when, I beat depression I will only prove to myself that I can do anything and having a harder life struggle makes losing weight that much more attainable in my mind! Let's keep going. Putting one foot in front of the other even when we can't see the road we're walking on.

    You are so welcome. We all need support and a kind word. I've been through depression as well and come out at the other end of it better able to face life. Your exercise and healthy eating can only help you with this, I know it has made a difference for me. I'll be praying the darkness will lift for you soon and you'll be able to see more brightness ahead. :)
