Hi im new to the group and i am dying for help and support! I have a 21 month old daughter and have breastfed her up until about a month ago when i weaned her cos she was only BFing max 2 times a day and pacifying herself all night on my breast! Also for the past 2 or 3 months i have been having back pain and nerve problems with numbness in legs and now hands and my dr gave me medicines to take which made me worried to keep BFing my daughter and finally i came to the conclusion my BFing was stopping my body let go of the fat which i am surprised by cos with my son i lost weight. So cos of my back and everything exercising isnt really an option and i have given up trying to eat healthy cos im so depressed and im becoming desperate its been so long since i have felt good about my body im currently 88 kgs and before my 2 kids (which i had back to back ) i was 65 kgs my stomach is flabby and horrible and my whole body is just swollen , please help im so depressed, thanx

Hi Sara! I had problems with losing weight and depression too. I did a lot of research about food and how what you eat effect everything, including mood. It's an incredibly difficult transition though to go from unhealthy eating habits to healthy ones, especially because there is so much false info about what is healthy and what isn't. I had a friend introduce me to Isagenix, and it turned everything around for me. I could pass on info about it to you if you'd like.
Good luck, I hope things start looking up for you soon!
