Bouncing back after loss

Hi all
I started mfp in Jan 2017. I flew through the process with a loss of 6 st and 4lbs. In November 2017, my dad was diagnosed with cancer and although I tried to remain focused, I didn't. In Feb 2018, dad fell asleep after finishing his treatment five days before hand and didn't wake. It was sudden and unexpected. Myself and my family went through the motions. I left my home and moved back to be with my mam.
Two weeks ago I decided enough was enough. I gained weight but I haven't ruined everything. Still at a loss of 4st and 6lbs.
I'm looking for friends to join me as I continue with my journey. Please feel free to add me and I'll reciprocate support also.

Sent you a friend request and message, but now am not seeing it. Did you get it? I'm new to the social media piece of MFP and am not sure how it works.0
