I am recently recovering from a long depression and a long time of making poor eating choices. I developed a bad chronic back pain about 6 years ago that has really limited my ability to excersices. Thus, I stopped trying to eat right and just ate whatever and when my depression kicked in and worsened I began badly over eating.
Now I am at my all time worse weight, just exploding in fat. However, my depression is getting better as I have started taking better care of myself again in other ways that were also lacking during the depression. Now I am becoming encouraged that I want to do something about my weight, but it is hard with my back pain and my living situation. I live with a room mate who does all the dinner planning and most of the grocery shopping and we're all on a shoe string budget.
Anyway, I must find a way to make myself start making better choices, decreasing my portions, cutting out unhealthy snacks, and at least adding frequent walks to my life style or I'm going to start running into some health risks. Not to mention what being at this size is doing to my self esteem.
Any thoughts or prayers appreciated.
