hey natalia,
it's the same for me, when i was at my highest weight i was always depressed and really hated myself. i only started health eating/exercising early this year and i'm now learning to love myself a whole lot more and become a happier healthier person. by the way i'm 327pounds so have a looong way to go, but so far have lost 23 pounds and even though it may not show physically, emotionally it has done wonders because i feel like i have left alot of baggage behind and will continue to do so untill i get to my goal weight.

there's lots of stuff in the forum that'll help eg the diary section where you can write daily what your eating/exercising or just vent out any frustrations of the day. your definitely in the right place, i've gotten so much support since i joined this forum and i don't feel so alone in this anymore.
