Hi

Weight loss is mostly nutrition: Eat at deficit.
Have some activity that you like.
Good luck in your journey0 -
The biggest thing for me was finding workouts I ENJOYED. If it gets you moving and you like it enough to keep doing it, it's a good workout. Weight loss is mostly diet related. Working out is for improving your physical fitness and shaping/building muscles.0

start with a 30 minute walk every day or at least 5 times a week0

So sorry for your loss. Depression can be significantly reduced following a Gluten Free/Dairy Free diet. Also, you will need to amp up on B vitamins and lots of Vit D as the winter approaches.
There is alot of great information on the correlation between gut health and the brain. Also, you may have a sensitivity to wheat and not even know it. That may be why you have struggled with weight loss and not been successful.0 -
Im on day 20 joining MFP and day 7 on jillian michaels 30 day shred. Its a 20 minute workout video on youtube and it really works. Try it. See if you think it speeds up the process. I noticed a difference by day 3. Its intense. Might need some motrin next day!! Good luck. Working out is great for boosting your mood and makes you too tired to think about negative things.0

I'm sorry for your loss. I suffered from depression and anxiety quite a bit myself. I've been doing Max Workouts for about a month and a half - though I don't follow his diet plan exactly, I really like the exercises (plus it was only like $40). Food wise- I've found watching my nutrient intake has been really helpful- trying to get the recommended potassium is really difficult but helpful, and enough fiber, etc. Hope this helps.0

Please be careful about "amping up" on vitamin B. You CAN overdose on it and it causes lasting negative effects on the body. Consult an actual physician before drastically changing your vitamin intake.0 -

Gluten does not effect depression unless you are intolorent/celiac, in which case it MAY cause problems, there is no firm data. And I agree on the vitamin advice, consult your doctor. Self medicating can be very problematic, especially in relation to mental health.0 -
Does anybody have any EXTRA workout videos that they wouldn't mind letting a fellow friend have?! I'm in need of in-home work outs.0

Get on YouTube. I'm pretty sure all 3 levels of 30 Day Shred are on there along with tons of other free workout videos.0 -
