    You already have so much strength and you need to recognized that in yourself. So many people struggle with the weight loss and think that they aren't strong enough or they just can't do it. Not the case with you! Your motivation is to be healthy and just having that is enough to get you started. Just remember to celebrate every victory and give yourself grace and gratitude! Your family is in my prayers... and remember, your strength and faith will guide you through!

    sorry to hear of your family trials, the thing we need to remember is that we live in an imperfect, fallen world, thanks to Satan and his meddling. But have faith and trust in the Lord and remember that he is in control so trust Him and all will be well. Get out there and exercise, it helps to clear your head and help keep you sane. Eat good stuff, too - fresh fruits and veggies, lots of water, eat all of this you can eat, it is very healthy and cleansing! God bless you, I will pray for you.

    The best thing that you can do for yourself is to remember to see your gyn every year, now that you have your family history. Consume foods rich in antioxidants. Eat plenty of fruits and vegetables. There are so many people on here who hardly eat any fruits and vegetables. Cruciferous vegetables and lycopenes are very important. Find out what the power foods are and eat them.

    It is very serious that your mother has no way to absorb nutrients from her food. Be sure you spend as much time with her as you can, because she will not recover from this. We all have to lose our mothers, but it's not fair that it is so soon.

    Someone said a beautiful prayer for you and it made my cry.

    Hugs,
    Ruth

    Bless your sweet heart Wondergurl. You didn't call yourself this for nothing. You ARE WONDERful. :smile:

    It says in Matthew 18:20 "because where two or three have come together in my name, I am there among them." We are joining hands and lifting you and your mom up in prayer.

    We may not always know why things happen in this world but one thing we can stay strong on is the love of our wonderful Lord. He knows your pain and is with you every step of the way, ALWAYS.

    Stay strong in faith, spirit and in prayer.

    Love and Hugs for you and for your mom. :flowerforyou:
