    I’m so sorry for your loss. I lost my Dad on November 11th and it still feels so unreal. He struggled with Parkinson’s for 15 yrs but copd and congestive heart failure took him out. A lingering illness takes its toll in so many ways and depression was a big one.

    Some days I’m ok and others I’m on the floor in a fetal position. It hurts...I don’t think I’ll ever stop missing him. But I started this journey with his blessing and I won’t let him down. He was so proud of me. Please don’t stop... you don’t have to do all this right now, give yourself a breather and mourn but remember to make healthy choices.

    Matthew 5:4 Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted.

    Hi. I'm hug number 32. I'm really sorry that you're experiencing the pain from the loss of your mom. I'm sure she had many reasons to be proud of you. And my gut tells me, that when she looks down from above, she wants to see you living your life happy. And if she looks down and sees that you are staying on track with your program, it will give her just another reason to be proud of you. <3

    You are heartbroken, and i hate the grief and pain you are going though.. i'm sorry you lost your mom, it just isn't fair. Of course, no one here wants this crisis to cause you to spin out of control and regain the weight you've worked so hard to lose. i bet your mom was proud of your weight loss, i hope she told you so and you can remember that as you get through this stressful time.

    I am so sorry for your loss.

    I lost my dad last november after he got diagnosed with lung cancer in september.
    What helped me cope was walking and running. Maybe you can find some comfort in this as well. Because the time between him getting ill and diagnosed and him passing away was so short it was hard to get my mind around that. And walking helped. It helped a lot. And walking became running. And i was so tired in those months from the mental strain that grieve gave me that having a tired body was actually comforting.

    I have a dog and that helped me too. Otherwise i probably would have buried myself underneath a pile of blankets and never come out again. But the dog needs excercise too.

    Just remember that everybody handles grieve differently.
