I need friends to help kick my *kitten* in gear!!!!!

This is my 3rd time around, of deleting, quitting and starting up again. Great news for me is that whole 3rd times a charm thing usually pertains to me. I was an incredibly active individual totally laid out by severe neck and spine issues, I'm actually in knee deep right now.....seeing a neurosurgeon next week for my thoracic. I can't lift anymore, and I loathe cardio but it's the only I can actively do without too much pain, so I am crazy with cardio right now. I've managed to lose 12 lbs in the last 6 weeks, diet and cardio, I'd really like to drop 10 more. Myself being a *kitten* got all depressed and deleted all my friends, some really amazing ones :( I need a support system, it REALLY helps me stay on the straight and narrow. Will you be my supportive friend.......please? :)

    Depression has hit me many times in my bad health life that I have had so I can identify with you. What is important to remember dear is you are here again... you have made that committment to yourself to beat this and you CAN. If you ever want to talk or if you want to become my new friend, please do.
    This is only my second day here and I have many Drs appts too...going for my third appt this week.

    Been there... Not with the next/spine pain, but my joints are basically imploding on themselves, I fell off the wagon and stopped exercising for several months and unsurprisingly my pain got worse! So, now I'm back, with another 25 lbs to lose. and today is day 4!

    WE CAN DO THIS!!!
