NurseSophie 0 Posted July 17, 2010 I have tears in my eyes. I am so sorry you are enduring this. I have not been through this kind of stress since my band. I do know that food does not hold the same power over me as it once did. Now, "it's just food". BUT, you NEED nutrition so at least maybe get some Protein Shakes down or something? You need to maintain your strength. Sending hugs your way! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vlp1968 83 Posted July 17, 2010 I think you need to find healthy habits that will help you grieve and then move on from your sisters death. Excersise is a great idea. You might also try journaling- just let the pen go and write down what your feeling. Don't be afraid to accept support from the people around you. The main thing is to not let your feelings get bottled up. Best wishes! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LeighaMason 19 Posted July 17, 2010 Stress is hard on my band too, try sticking with liquids, Soups and mushies if you can, you don't need a sliming/PB episode to go with everything else. Please accept my sympathy for the loss of your sister. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BetsyB 9 Posted July 17, 2010 oh, Gypsy, I'm so, so sorry for your loss. How devastating. I, too, have lost a sibling; the pain is crushing. If you ever need an ear or shoulder, I'm here to talk. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
2beskinny 4 Posted July 17, 2010 I wish you the best under the circumstances. I am the mother of 15 year old twins - I feel your loss. Take care of yourself. I find that I eat when I'm stressed about "little things" the "big things" take my appetite away. Staying healthy and strong are the most important things right now. You have lots of time to worrry about the weight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sandradee0124 0 Posted July 17, 2010 Thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Agree with previous posts -- getting some hard core sweating in might help. Whatever you do, be sure to get lots of fluids and some Protein in to take care of you. God's peace............. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
