Does being active get easier?

I definitely think obesity affects balance. Where I have noticed it is in sports stadiums. I go to a lot of games at college stadiums that generally have bleachers. At the end of the games my son used to run ahead of me and bounce down the bleachers. I would have to VERY GINGERLY step on a bleacher, then down on the concrete, then the next bleacher, etc. And even then I was very nervous I would lose balance and fall.

170 lbs lighter, and I can pretty much run up and down the bleachers. I feel a lot more confident in my balance and ability. I'm not a teenager anymore, but I am a very mobile adult. It's a great feeling.

I go to the gym five days a week and I do the elliptical machines but after 30 minutes I am burned out. My legs feel like noodles. I literally have no endurance. i am praying for energy and suffering from depression does not help.

This is exactly the response I wanted to hear! I'm so hopeful now! After I got so big (255 lbs) I felt like I had the most horrible balance and I felt as if I would really hurt myself if I fall. Falling used to not be an issue for me; I would just get right back up. But now, falling really hurts. I'm able to get back up easily, but it's scary to think about because it hurts so much more than it used to.

I'm so sorry you're having a hard time. I'm proud of you for being under 200! Have you seen a therapist for your depression?
