Hi All,

I just wanted to say hello. I'm a former fitness freak who fell off the wagon when my husband committed suicide 1.5 years ago. I ended up gaining 20 lbs in a blink... It's funny how they sneak up on you when your depressed- creatures of pray. I didn't really even notice it (too busy being in a fog) until I noticed my habits were affecting my 11 year old. He was gaining weight and starting to feel insecure and that broke my heart! So, it's time to get my act together.

Anyways, I wanted to introduce myself because I always tend to do better when there is accountability and I'm hoping to find that here. I look forward to reading your posts, encouraging you along the way and losing these 20 lbs!

Best,
Carly

    Heartbreaking, I lost my dad and dad in law both recently. Priorities change in life and food turns as a comfort. Good luck to you and your son for the future.
