    Sorry about the breakup. :( We all know food doesn't fix anything, but it sure does make feeling bad a whole lot more bearable.

    Shanta, Sorry to hear about the breakup.
    You have been doing an amazing job so far.

    It's going to be her loss. There's many other people out there that you will find.

    Think about getting healthy, and showing off that hot body that you worked so hard for.:drinker:

    A broken heart is stronger than a heart that's never loved.

    You're stronger, wiser AND healthier than you were before her. And you will continue to gain strength and wisdom on your path to greater health. If you focus 110% on Shanta, true love will find you. :flowerforyou:

    I think everyone is entitled to a little pick-me-up treat when faced with heartache....as long as the treat doesn't become "treats" :wink:

    "This too, shall pass..." and your heart will heal with time. There are things out of our control, but we can always control what we do to our bodies.

    ~Big Hug for Shanta~

    I'm sorry, Shanta. :cry: That really stinks. It's never easy getting over someone, but you will.
    On a positive note, I'm glad to hear you're cycling. As you know, that's my favorite cardio.:wink:
    Hope you feel better soon, sweets :flowerforyou:

    Sorry :flowerforyou:
    I think we all know in our logical mind that comforting eating won't solve our problem, mend a broken heart etc..but it's still difficult not to overeat during sad/stressful times
    My advice it to stay out of the house and stay busy with friends/family..working out etc

    Hope you feel better soon
    One little slip doesn't mean anything...

    It probably sounds stupid but when I had a hard time with my ex-husband, exercising was a huge sense of relief for me. I could escape my head for a little while and afterwards I would feel strong instead of even more upset.

    I'm sorry you're having a tough time of it.:flowerforyou:
