Thanks again. I know what to do it seems-everything you mentioned-I even have a puppy-1 year, but for some reason I am LAZY-I never thought I was-but something is holding me back! I guess I will have to figure out what that is and go from there? I didn't have a weight problem until I started taking medication. My whole life, I was thin-active, happy, and healthy-then BAM-it all hit me and for 10+ years-I have been suffering, my fault I guess. I just am sick and tired of being sick and tired ya know?
So anyway, I guess only I have to make the changes. This whole concept is about 80%of my depression.
Thanks again.
Take care.
> >Well I choose not to eat sugar for several reasons. It does put on the pounds and even though it will give you a quick energy boost it also quickly lets you down, then your left just wanting more sugar to get another left. Once you get off sugar you don't crave it any more. I eat a variety of foods, beef, chicken, turkey, fish along with vegetables and some fruit. It's important to get enough protein every day in your diet. I also take tons of vitamins everyday. I have the hair loss problem with the Topamax so some of the vitamins are to help with that. I also take Omega-3, which I don't think has done anything for my mental health but it is good for the body ! I was going to the gym three times a week before the Lexapro made me so tired and I'm hoping to get back on that schedule next week. I also have a dog ,a Pomeranian and have to get out and walk her every day and that has help me a lot. The best way is just to take one day at a time. That's hard to do and I work hard to keep that in mind all the time, not to worry to much about the future. You know what they say....baby steps....baby steps
