I’m so sorry for all the trials you’re facing! I went through a similarly hard time a few years ago … seemed that everywhere I turned, friends and loved ones were coming down with cancer, getting robbed, having homes destroyed by tornadoes, having surgery … on and on. When those times come, words are little comfort. Know that we’re hoping that things get better for you and those you love.

I am sorry you are surrounded by so much stress right now! I hope thing start looking up soon. I know sometimes life puts our weightloss journey on the back burner and honestly maintaining is a victory in itself! I bet if you keep doing what you are doing, the results will come. Stress can stall loss sometimes too, it produces frustrating chemicals in the body. Just keep making healthy choices and taking times out for emotional breathers. Try yoga or tai chi?

Vent away! You have so much on you right now, you’d be a saint to not need support and encouragement. As others have said, that you’ve hung in there by a thread and not turned to food is amazing. Keep your head held high and know that this too will pass!

You’ve managed to not gain 10 pounds in the past few weeks? Ya know, with the stress and everything you are under (and I apologize, I know the workload is partially my fault – know that you are very very very appreciated and I will make it up to you) (HUGS)

Aside from that though… think for a minute… you haven’t totally turned to food for comfort. How HUGE is that? You’ve not been bad about your eating and you’ve been realistic. I know it has to be annoying to keep losing and gaining those 3 pounds, but you lose them again, you aren’t hanging on to them. You haven’t turned to food. That, honey, makes me almost cry with happiness for you. That is, simply, amazing. Be proud of yourself and give yourself a break. We love and support you. You are amazing.

Girl, why does it always seem like when it rains it pours? Especially when it comes to illness and death. I always try to keep in mind that it’s the circle of life, but sometimes I just have to ask Him when enough is enough.

It’s your blog, you can vent if you want to. I’ll still be here to read every word!

keep in mind that its your blog. sure you’ve got friends out there reading it daily, but the content is for you. if you need to use it to vent that’s perfectly okay.

sounds like you’re going through a whole lot right now. *hugs*
