Battle Depression with Fitness…

Watch Michelle’s incredible and inspiring story here. At 270 pounds, with crippling Postpartum depression after the birth of her second child and on strong antidepressants that contributed to weight gain, she had tried everything to get over her mental illness…except get into the gym. The minute she began regular work outs she started on the road to recovery. Now she’s 100 pounds lighter; medication and depression free! She’s an example of what experts hope is a growing trend. Some we spoke to say mild mental health issues should and could be treated with exercise first, pills second.
