Hey everybody,

Darn this MFP it's really gotten me thinking. More importantly, it has me looking at my picture (over and over) of me at my biggest. I suppose my question to anybody that might know is... is it normal to grieve for that you? I remember him. I remember his hurt... physical, mental, and emotional. I know... somehow deeper today than ever before... that he is gone forever. And I grieve. I can say with absolute certainty that he is in a better place now. And yet still I grieve. I cry for everything he went through, and for him, I am glad that he is gone, but in some way I cannot explain, I will miss him. I should be happy... elated even. And yet I grieve.

Is this normal? Should I be getting a visit from the nice men with a REALLY long sleeve jacket soon?

    I think it sounds like a normal train of thought. If you were that weight for a long time maybe sometimes you miss not watching what you eat or not exercising. dont worry we wont send the men in white coats any time soon. keep it going you are doing a great job:drinker:

    Why not grieve... it is a part of you that is gone. I have found that the weight is a safety net, letting that go, is a massive thing and a definite part of the journey!! So grieve and let go.. look to the future and the new life you have made!.. I look forward to doing the same in the very near future!
