I am really depressed lately and have seen the scales going up. I am a mom to two little boys both affect differently with Autism. I am so worried about them that I almost wear my extra weight as a armor suit. I have a hard time going to the weight watcher meetings as I really don't want to hear the problems associated with food. I know that may sound selfish but I really just get very discouraged with it all. I don't even know how to begin anymore I don't have the will to even get up and go for a walk let alone figure out what I should be eating. Sorry I must sound like a broken record. I am just really down in the dumps. Help... Denise

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse.

I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
You said "I don't even know how to begin anymore". Well, try this if you will. Say out loud, as loud as you can, "I am not an animal". And again, "I am not an animal, I am a human being. I need to be loved like everyone else."
I'll try to love you if you want, but I don't know how yet. Let me know if you want to talk.

I think we all focus on food as a comfort. But it sounds like your carrying a very big load, almost an unbearable amount. It may be time to get some professional help. God bless you. I am available if you need to talk!
