Hi.
I'm sorry to hear about your depression. That's not good at all. :[
I know how hard exercising can be especially if you're just starting out. Just start slow and small like sit ups and taking a small run (if you have a dog then go on a small run with your dog) orpop in your ipod and listen to some music at the same time.
It doesn't even have to strictly be exercise. If you like dancing pop in some good music you love dancing to and dance away for 30 mins a day. Just that will make a big difference. You won't need to do a full 30 mins to start with either, as I said start off slow and move up to 30 mins gradually and at your own pace.
If you have a friend you hang out with try and get them in on it as well. If you've a friend helping you it really does make it all that much easier. I used to hate going to the gym (wasted a lot of money by paying and then just not going because I didn't have the motivation to go). I now found out that one my friends goes there too and it's the exact same thing with him - no motivation to go (he hasn't gone in months). So after I renew my membership next week I aim togo as often as I can without making my back worse and take my mate along with me for that extraa support and motivation.
The turning to food when depressed is something I understand all too well too. When you're depressed why not turn to some friends instead to talk to them about what's bringing you down? Or just to talk and try get them to help cheer you up a little? I know it may not work but it's sure worth a try.
The best way to try would be to start off slow and make your way up from there. As I said, you can do it you just have to believe in yourself. I know you can do it. :] If you ever do need to talk then feel free to message me anytime whether it just be to talk if your depressed or just to get more tips and such. ]
