For more than 16 years I've battled with depression & weight loss. Neither has been easy to deal with. But I've decided today I'm going to do something about it. Better it is to fight than give up. But I can't do it alone. Mother of 5 Big boys, needs all the help I can get!

    Hello! I recently got diagnosed with depression as well so I know how difficult it can be to stay motivated. I'm trying to keep my motivation up by seeing a therapist and possibly getting on some anti-depressants (eventually) but my friends on here have been a huge help!

    Since you're new here, I would suggest reading these threads:

    They have been so helpful for me and I think they could help you too!

I really want to fit back into my jeans and not be that person who is always wearing leggings, so please give me some support and I will give it back!

    I have fairly treatment resistant depression as well. That said, I've done this journey before and I'm doing it again. I'm exercising a lot and that helps immensely. Y'all can add me if you want.
