    Hey sweetie:

    With all that you have endured lately. That would be an extreme amount of stress on anyone. Much less if you are being diagnosed with ADHD/ADD. You have this though hon. Just do your best hon. And don't get down on yourself if you make mistakes. There are going to be ups and downs in life, as well as your weight loss journey, but you will get through this. My personal suggestion would be when you feel stressed read the book of Psalms in the bible. It always makes me feel better. I will keep you in my prayers. It is all going to be okay! :bigsmile:

    REINventing - I love the sound of that - I need to do the very same thing. High stress levels here too, which means I eat eat eat & eat some more. . . I hope your husbands surgery went well and all falls back into place for you. Good Luck to you :drinker: :flowerforyou:

    You've already lost 10 lbs - you can keep on that track. Don't be like me and lose 8 and gain back 6 of it! I keep sliding back into my mud hole, can't seem to get a grip. :explode:

    MFP helps me stay positive but these beautiful people are not here to slap my hands away from the bad choices. I need to do that part on my own. I take the smiles and positive comments all to heart from here - I will succeed in due time - I just have to FOCUS and decide that this is what NEEDS to be done. I'm nearing 50 and getting achy and slow. I have 7 Grandkids that I need to keep up with! REINventing, REfocusing REnewing - whatever we need to call it to get it to work - Let's DO IT!:happy:

    :laugh:
