Nicole don't worry, I am overweight too and I am depressed sometimes but if you stay depressed you won't lose the weight needed because you are too worried. You have to pace yourself do activities that make you feel comftable but don't over work yourself. Even though I hate my weight I love myself enough to try to lose the weight. I was overweight since I was 10 and still am today, all because of one little thing DEPRESSION, and I need to learn to overcome that feeling so I can overcome the fear of being overweight. All you need to do is relax and pace yourself, and you can make it....If you have any questions email me at: tiella16@hotmail.com
