How do I regain faith in myself?

I used to care about my appearance and work out on a regular basis then I met my husband got lazy and gained 100 pounds but I still cared to dress nice and do my makeup. I haven't bought any new clothes in over 2 years really, I stay in my pajamas half the time. I seem to have no self control and this is not the person I knew myself to be at one time. How do I regain faith in my judgments and myself?

    Okay this is what you do.

    You work out just 10 minutes a day. Whether it's elliptical, treadmill, walking around the block a few times.

    You got to work up a sweat. But just 10 minutes, no more is necessary, it might discourage you.

    And then walk around, get away from people for a little while, because generally people suck. Do what makes you happy, and try to chill out.

    I think you could be depressed, life is depressing, but really things can be as meaningless and meaningful as you want them to be.

    Life's too short to not do what you want to do. Be selfishly loving, and don't lie to yourself.

    You'll be okay.

    Don't want too much. Don't want too little.

    Well, asking this question proves you have a bit of hope left for yourself.

    Now it's just time to set goals and work to achieve them.

    I suggest you talk to your physician and get on a good antidepressant.

    Join the local TOPS chapter in your town. They will offer you tremendous support.
