Depression means an open season on food to me, too. I never seem to get very far on fasts because my brain runs out of sugar and I become a cranky person with headaches.
Also, I can kill you with my brain.

Spike's Bitches 33: Weeping, crawling, blaming everybody else
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
I also lose weight when depressed. And the exercising does help in keeping both the pounds and the depression at bay - one of the many reasons why I take a run on my lunch break. Mmmm, sun.
Running a lot also means I can't fast. I fast, I can't run, and I get mega-cranky.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
Chewing just seems like such an effort when I'm really upset. Food just makes me feel ill.
I don't run, but I will do sit-ups, push ups, and now box (Mr. Jane bought me a bag after I put my fist through a window). I will take the dogs on long walks or dance for cardio.

Nana korobi, ya oki. (Fall down seven times, stand up eight.) ~Yuzuru Hanyu/Japanese proverb
I'm a yo-yo dieter, even when depressed. Mild depression - I eat, anything and everything. Severe depression - I stop eating because I feel like I'm choking. My big problem is getting excersize; I don't. It's one thing to know I need to and another to actually do it.
Deena, I love that tea pot! It looks like it should be yours, I'm mad that Target didn't have it in stock for you.

I really want a heavy bag, I just have no place to put it. My upper body would be fierce.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I tend to eat when I'm depressed, but I can't eat when I'm stressed out.
I'm working on dieting now. Breakfast was hot cereal made with soy milk, lunch was a quesadilla with low-fat cheese and whole wheat tortillas, and dinner will be veggie buffalo wings and celery sticks. Not perfect, but a definite effort for good carbs and lots of veggies and protein. (Just made tomorrow's lunch, too. Some salad with tomatoes and bleu cheese; some pasta salad with whole wheat pasta, peppers, artichokes, and basil; some tomatoes and fresh mozzerella; and some sauteed chard. I can stick with healthy lunches so much more easily when I use my lunchbox.)

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Don't call Cass, she'll just get all "TOLD you so" and leave you there to rot.
