    Wow... Praise the Lord you came through it and have learned a valuable yet very difficult lesson. This will have more of an impact on your children than you realize... teaching them not to make the same choices and providing new ones for them to model. What an incredible chance you've been given to regain your life and make the most of it! I said a prayer for you and continue to support you in your journey!! Amazing testimony, thank you for sharing!!

    For every pound we loose that is one less our children will have to in the future.
    Through our mistakes we will teach them.

    :flowerforyou: Wow - your words spoke to me so much...thankyou for putting yourself out there. Reading it brought tears to my eyes as I am 52 years old and I need to lose 50 lbs. I too am a wife, mother and grandmother of 4 little ones. Your storey has really touched me and I am wishing much success in your journey! I recently had an ex-sister-in-law age 49 in the same situation as you and that too has brought reality to my life! God Bless you and your family and if you want to, you can friend me as I am already inspired by your insight! :smile:

    You probably don't realize this, but you have given all of us on MFP a great gift today. Praying for a steady and strong recovery for you and I hope you will keep us all posted on how you are doing. I have to go check my mascara now...
