Men, I know what it is like to be overweight and depressed.

Not having the energy to do anything but relax and sleep.

While relaxation and sleep are incredibly important, they can make us feel like we are not making progress in our lives.

And when depression hits, it’s very difficult to push through with exercise and weight loss.

But did you know that even though it takes time and some effort, you don’t need to get obsessively crazy over it?

In fact, with just a few small adjustments, you can lose weight, fight back against depression, and take your life back.

If you're serious about shedding pounds and pushing away those depression demons, here are five tips that can help get you started. 

A few weeks ago, my buddy Grant and I talked about nutrition.

We talked about how he's lost over 120 pounds so far with the weight loss progress he's been making.

This is all because he has been making healthier decisions over time.

One of the newest challenges he's facing right now is he's got a new job. He's working 10 to 12 hour days with physical demanding labor.

And what's been happening for him is that he's been super exhausted, he's not motivated to meal prep, he's having trouble trying to sit down and cook foods doesn't have the energy doesn't have the time.

So what I propose is five tips that you can use to live a more on the go fast food healthy eating lifestyle.

Pushing myself towards physical activity helped with my depression and anxiety, and I wanted to reveal to you what helped.
