So for me from six until April this year (I turned 31 in May) I suffered from depression which attributed to my weight gain in April God healed me from my depression (as well as my social anxiety and suicidal thoughts) and since then it's been a struggle to change the habits I had from depression (sleeping to much, eating when bored, lots of fast food, ect) I don't go outside to exercise because I live in the ghetto and there isn't really any safe places to walk, we don't own where we live (we live with our sheep in-laws) so I can't have any kind of exercising equipment and going to the gym is out of the question. So I work with what I have.

I am Coptic Orthodox so we fast like 240+ days a year (which means not just abstaining from food but sometimes we eat vegan) which if I put effort into following the fast it means more healthy at home meals (something I am trying to do). It's a slow process but I am working on getting healthy! ☺️
