Depression and Anxiety has set in!!!!!!!!!!!!

 Okay, Last week I felt great! I was taking the Phen and changing my eating. I lost a total of 8 lbs. This week is a total different story. I have started having panic attacks and have been so depressed. My first attack was so unexpected. I was on my way to school and stopped at the gas station. All of a sudden, I felt this terror overcome me. I have felt like crap ever since. I missed school yesterday because I could not get out of bed. I NEVER miss school. I stopped taking the Phen because I do not know if it is messing with my brain chemicals. I have every reason in the world to beat this depression, lose weight, and get healthy!!! I can not let this depression get me. I am just going to have to cut down on the Phen for right now and watch my diet on my own. I have to make time to exercise to get my endorphins going. I WILL GET BETTER!!!!

One year later- Still the same weight!!!

I'm back. It has been almost a year since I started EP and I am still at the same weight that I was last year at this time. I am NOT going to let this discourage me at all though!!! This is my motivation to do it this time. It is now or never. I wanna fit my clothes good and not have to shop in the plus section/stores. I wanna feel good and energetic. The scariest part of this journey is that I am prediabetic so I am hoping to reverse this with a new "lifestyle" NOT diet. I can not turn back this time. Plus my kids have gained LOTS of weight over the past year so I need to get their weights under control. I am going to make this a new family lifestyle and make a concious effort to plan what we are eating. We have all stepped up our water intake and now we are stepping up the family activity. Of course, we are working on cutting out most of the fats and sugars. I am working on portion control with all of us. Life is too short to be this overweight. No matter what, I am going to struggle with my weight for the rest of my life so I need to learn how to properly loss the weight and keep it off. Most importantly, I gotta get my babies healthy.

I need some support!!!! Anyone wanna be buddies???

It has been a week since I started the program and have did okay. I know that I need to step it up a little. The last time that I walked was on Sat so I HAVE to make time to walk 2morrow. I have been eating better but I did "cheat" on Easter. I got right back on track though. I need to work on water, wate and breakfast. I have not weighed in yet but I will weigh in this weekend. Hopefully, I have lost a few pounds. I need some support on here. i think that it would be good to have a few "buddies" so please feel free to contact me

Today is my first day!!!!

I have gradually been making lifestyle changes over the past few months but it is time to step it up.  I started taking adipex yesterday. I am working on my diet and will exercise today- even though I am dreading it in my subconcious mind BUT......I am going to think positive about the exercise because I have no other choice.  I want to feel good! I have been on antidepressants for five and half years and have off and on battles with anxiety and depression. I think that my weight may play a big role in this. I want to feel good again! I want to enjoy life again! I NEED TO GAIN SELF CONFIDENCE!!!!!! It is going to be a LOOOOOONG road but I know that the pay off will be great.! Good Luck to everyone- I need some support!!!!!
