    Rough night last night. Did some serious emotional eating, but I didn't care. I couldn't sleep all night, just thinking of how much I miss her and how much I wish not only that I could see her again but that I'm now having all these new experiences that I wish I could share with her.

    Thanks. :) Haven't been able to run all week because I tore my calf last Sunday, but I have been spending a lot of time on the elliptical trainer.

    Fell off the wagon a bit in the last few days... The numbness of it has worn off and I'm very much in a funk right now. The good news is that I was granted an additional ten days of bereavement starting tomorrow so I am off work until November 13. I am going to start tomorrow to focus on getting myself healthy -- healthy body, healthy mind.

    I had lost 25 but now I've put back on about six or seven of those. My goal is to spend every day at the gym during my time off.

    My condolences to you, friends and family. I can't even fathom the struggles you have been through these last few days. My thoughts and prayers go out to you.

    If there's a silver lining in all of this, it's that she inspired you to get healthier and in turn, you have inspired others through your testimony.

    Stay strong and Keep The Faith!
