Hi everyone, Ive been on Myfitnesspal for awhile but I havent been on in many months, I think I lost alot of friends due to my absence. I was struggling w my depression and my dad has cancer. But its time for me to take care of myself. If anyone would like an extra friend add me :) and good luck to everyone, many blessings

    My father passed from cancer. I know what you are going through. Try to stay positive.

    Hi! I was in a similar situation--was consistent from May to November, then totally fell off the wagon until February (though I didn't start counting and using MFP again until early March). I have SAD, and that, in conjunction with typical holiday eating, a cancer scare from my mom, and stress, resulted in some weight gain on my part.

    I also lost some pretty cool friends while I was "on hiatus," so I definitely need more active friends on my F-list.

    (I sincerely hope your dad is doing okay. Stay strong.)
