Hi!
I'm a newbee to this board. I have been to the diet board, but I realize that if I'm going to accomplish what I plan, I am going to need advise from the ladies...
I'm 33yrs old, about 320 and I REALLY want to do this. I am walking daily about 30min, and I'm watching what I eat, but I can tell I need something with a little boost, to help my metablism and give me some energy. Let me tell you a little more about myself to understand why I asked about energy boosters. In my early teens and 20's I was a heavy meth user, used from age 14 to 29. Since I stopped using, I gained so much and I have been told that due to my drug use, my metabolism is all messed up. I know my weight plays a part into my tiredness, which can sometimes trigger depression. I'm not here to tell a sob story or look for sympathy. I know it is going to take hard work and that no one can do it for me. Is there anything I can take that can increase my energy til I can do it on my own?
Also, nutrition and excercise programs are new to me, so I could really use some help getting a program together for me. I went to the Doctor and was told it was just depression and wanted to put me on meds, but like I said, I know that the depression stems from my weight. So, in order for me not to be depressed, I know I need to get fit. I'm ready and willing to take in as many suggestions or advise I can get.... Gracias..
