feeling overwhelmed

I have been dealing with end stage renal disease for the past 3 years. I am on a renal diet [have to watch foods high in phosphates], diabetic [diet controlled], and hypertensive. I had the lap band surgery one year ago.
So many foods that are "healthy" I have to restrict/avoid so that I remain in stable health. I am also an emotional [anger] eater who has at times difficulty staying away from high fat/rich foods, even though the quantity is small, the calories are high.
I have lost about 45 lbs this year very slowly. I am anemic and am tired often, so the fatigue keeps me from doing anything strenuous. I have never been a walker, as I have fibromyalgia and my back goes into spasm. It is getting better as the weight comes off. I have dialysis 3 times/wk for 4 hours which unfortunately is very draining. I am waiting for a kidney transplant to become available.
