For some time now I've been trying to diet, eat right, exercise...to no avial. I've been having a lot of trouble with depression which is a considerable factor in any fitness regime. So, the more depressed and disillutioned I become the more I eat, the more I gain weight, the more depressed I get. Very vicious cycle. So I've got an appointment next week to meet with my doctor. I've had trouble with high blood pressure and I'm sure I'm going to be put on blood pressure medication from now on. Because my weight has now ballooned up to 200+ pounds I'm a considerable health risk. But, I'm going to ask about something for either diet or depression OR BOTH! At this point I'm not sure which is worse.

My friend and I started out of course with great optimisim and energy. Then she went and bummed out on me. I was going to join a local Curves for Women fitness center (they have pretty cheap rates) but we can't afford any type of "extras" these days. So I'm just stuck. Big hole...me in it...starting to rain. Hopefully the doctor will work with me and try to find some solution be it something for reducing my appetite or something to level out my moods and hormones. SOMETHING!

So, I'll pop back in a week or so and let you know what's up. Hope you're doing better than me.
