Be thankful that you are well aware of your behavior. The discouragement you feel at having lost control is completely normal. So is the guilt. You really have to empower yourself when committing to your well fare and well being. I find that stress impacts us the most, we seem to lose control and start losing our efforts…

You have come so far... and have gone through so much. I find that we have a hard time forgiving ourselves. It is time to reach into your inner self. You obviously have the will, so cherish who you are as a woman and embrace yourself, your power your strength and all that you are. Remember and rejoice! Embrace each…
