Hi there, I'm Heather. The past 2 years have seen me go from freelance work & being on the go all the time to a sedentary desk job, major depression dealing with illness & death of my mother, and seeking solace in food & drink. Never been skinny but I have noticed my clothes getting too small and when I stepped on the scale last week I was SHOCKED at what I saw.
I also quit smoking about 4 months ago and the clothes have gotten even more tight since then, and I think my weight is contributing to depression & lack of energy...
So, a friend told me about this site and I am ready to get back on the health & fitness bandwagon. Would love some friends on here & motivation/encouragement along the way!

Hello Heather,
Sorry for your lost. I know it is hard but I can tell you that it will get better as time goes on.
Congrats on quitting smoking. I personally don't smoke so I cannot comment on how hard it might be, but it is a good step in the right direction.
You will find a lot of support and motivation here. Everyone here has a common goal. Get healthy. I wish you luck on your journey.0
