Hey all! I'm Jessica from North Carolina!!! Im FINALLY ready to get my life back in order! I suffer from seasonal depression, and I'm trying really hard this year to break out of it!!!
From January to July I lost 40 pounds. When July comes...so does my depression and I gain most of it back! I have 30 pounds to lose to get me back to how I was a couple months ago, and Im not going to let this depression get to me!
I'm not gaining any more weight, and I am not waiting for this depression to leave in January... I'm fighting threw it!!
WHOSE WITH ME!?!?!
I don't have that many friends or people in my life I can relate to with weight problems, so that is why I am turning to myfitnesspal to find people who can motivate me, and other way around =]

I hate my Seasonal Affective Disorder, it's so sad. Okay, maybe I shouldn't make jokes about it...Mine usually creeps in after the Fall Back time change...just the whole, getting dark earlier thing. I'm already going to bed at 9:30 this semester as is...I'm scared I'll be in bed at 5 or 6 once that happens.
Okay, I'm glad that you're wanting to start a healthy lifestyle. I hope it's helpful in managing your seasonal depression.
Feel free to send a request my way if you want any support or encouragement.
Best of luck!0
