feedyoureye 3,087 Posted August 23, 2014 My moms memorial was last weekend. The food really wants to be my best friend right now. I am working to write everything I eat down, and keep up with my stress relief exercise and getting out into nature. I am bouncing around 1-4 pounds above my "official goal bounce range" and really don't want that to become the new me. Its not so out of control, but the stress and sadness do lead to less than optimal choices... eating out with relatives, eating on the run.... I know it can and will change with time... Im just trying to keep my eyes open to what I am doing, and not go into ostrich head in the sand mode which leads to weight gain every time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VSGAnn2014 12,992 Posted August 23, 2014 CGJ, Although I only know you online, your posts have been a friendly lamp in the dark for me for a long time. Rather than mutter much more, I hope you know that your contributions to many people have earned you return support here through the digital ether. And I hope our support and regard for you can help light up some of dark where you are. Ann Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fluffnomore 1,235 Posted August 24, 2014 I call my online friends my imaginary friends too. But they are just as dear (and in some cases more dear!) than many of my IRL friends. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have healed quite a lot from loss, but I know when it is happening to you it is a raw and horrible pain, causing much suffering. May God Bless and quiet your soul during this process.
