Hey guys, just a little intro, I was here on this site 4 years ago, had about 35lb to lose, and did it with the help of all you guys and the nifty tickers/diaries etc. All was good, and i maintain a balance that fluctuated 4.lbs or so only for a couple of years, happy little me :)
Then disaster struck. My husband had an affair and i threw him out, its ok. good people make bad choices sometimes and we are good friends now, but only a few weeks after he left i lost my mother to a brain annuerism. just like that, out of the blue, whilst having dinner with family, she collapsed. 4 days in a coma and she was gone. my best friend and my anchor. this sparked a dark time for me whereby i didnt eat whatsoever, got dangerously little and friends noticed, so they fed me. slowly but surely they fed me, anything i would eat they gave to me.chocolate, chips bread, the lot. i eat now, im ok. but they continued bless them. which leads me here with approx 25lb to lose again before im back to my happy size . wish me luck :) thanks for the ear x
