Jennimic 32 Posted April 10, 2022 Hi GiGi, I am so very sorry that you lost your Mother. That in itself is enough to rock anyone to their core. Having gone through that loss myself, I cannot encourage you enough to seek help from a grief counselor. Everything else will fall into place. 5 lizonaplane, summerseeker, toodlerue and 2 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GradyCat 3,695 Posted April 10, 2022 I'm sorry for the loss of you mother, Gigi. Weight-wise you've done GREAT! Be kind to yourself right now and don't focus on your weight. Try to follow the diet program as much as your grief will allow. 1 Arabesque reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Toomany#s 59 Posted April 10, 2022 Grief counseling or group meetings definitely help. Our local hospice had free group meetings and a local church does as well. Sorry about your Mom, it’s such a difficult loss. I agree with the others, focus on what you need more than beating yourself up worrying about your weight. 1 SleeveToBypass2023 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
toodlerue 452 Posted April 11, 2022 Oh Gigi, I’m so sorry about your mom. That is a really hard thing to go through. Sounds like you are in stage 4 of grief. Google the stages of grief. Give yourself some extra care & seek help. Maybe your primary care doc can give you something to help you deal with everything. Medications don’t make our problems go away, they just help us to deal with them better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lizonaplane 1,613 Posted April 11, 2022 I'm so sorry for your loss! Seek help from a therapist or grief support group, but also, take care of your body. Your Hair loss is likely made worse if you are not taking your Vitamins and if you are not getting enough Protein. Get the help you need to get back on track. Hugs!

Tomo 1,194 Posted April 12, 2022 This saddens me. I recently suffered a great loss as well. I am so sorry you had to go through this. If you are able to, I hope you can reach out to those close to you, and/or a therapist to help you with all of this.
