Hey

I was having one of those days were you feel very frustrated that things dont go as fast as you like, I know its not an overnight process but i was really annoyed that I had let myself put on 10lbs, from june to Sept, (ive lost 2lbs since) though I feel like ive just gave myself even harder job of getting to my goal weight! I think my mind is just a bit down at the minute as the 12th oct would have been my big brothers 27th bday ( he died when he was 18) plus its coming up to xmas which is when my uncle William died of a heart attack and annuerism ( he ate high fat foods and didnt take care of himsefl diet wise) we were so close to him that i feel like im greaving for my brother all over again, thats how strong the grief is! 2 weeks before his death my unlce Charles killed himself so it wasnt the best end/start to the year, then in june I had another truamtic experience whixch led to my 10lbs weight gain. I really dont know why im saying all of this i suppose i just need to get it off my chest as i was feeling really sad today, ims o glad i have a gorgeous little boy who makes me smile every single day, even when i feel like crying.

Lynsey :-)

    ((hug)) you sound like you needed one. :smile:
    Things will get better, just look at the things that you can be thankful for in your life and keep on moving along. :wink:

    Wow, that's absolutely awful. Be proud that you've kept it together so well. And ten pounds? You can knock that out, but make sure you're healing mentally first. I hope things get better for you. *hugs*
