I just started this journey today (after I had breakfast). Boy did I find out I have a tough day ahead! But I will get with the program and get better at choosing food as I go. I am 80 years old and have had a lot of stress in the last 7 years. My daughter and best friend was critically ill and passed away January 6, 2019. Then in February 2019 my husband lost his eyesight, so here we go again. I am a Christian and depend on God for my support as there is no one else and who could be better anyway.

    Hi Dessa! That was my grandmother's name (short for Hadassah). I'm glad you've found your way here. This is a great group for friendship and support. :)
