WVweaver's Journal, 01 April 2014

Well, it's been 2 1/2 weeks since Mom died and my emotions are on a giant roller coaster. I finally had a good food day yesterday. I KNOW that if I follow my food plan, I will be more stable emotionally. The one year anniversary of my sister Donna's death is in 2 weeks and I hope to be completely back on track by then. It's been a really stressful year but I can't give in to my old nature. I've already gained 20 lbs back over the last 3 months. I am still down 30 lbs from last April 1st. I need to find a goal to strive for... I need to motivate myself.

I am so sorry for your loss. I lost my mom in 1986. I pray that God will give you peace.

I'm sorry for your loss. I lost my husband three years ago from last November. I can understand that you are going through an emotional roller coaster. I gain 29 lbs. I started jogging to release the stress and my son introduce me to fat secret. I have lost 15 lbs since last April. Most of all, I held on to God for comfort and peace. Listening to KSBJ (Christian music) helped tremendously. And my three sons keep me going. My prayers are with you. May God send blessings your way.

I understand the roller coaster. I lost my mom 1989, my brother a year ago the March 21, I've been divorced twice and am a cancer survivor. Family cat died Saturday, and when my dog died. Life is full of events... good and bad. My prayers are with you as well. You will get on track soon enough but try to give yourself time enough to grieve to get through these first weeks. I still grieve for my family members. It never goes away. It may help to concentrate on the good times and good memories.

Thank you all for your kind words. I know that with God's help I will be ok. Both my Mom and sister are Christians, so when I get really sad, I try to remember how happy they are. And remember I will see them soon enough. I have lots of grandkids that keep me laughing and busy and that helps. I have had two successful food days now and am feeling better already. Bless you all.

When my mom died, I never thought that big, empty hole in my heart would ever heal. But her love and all that she taught me filled that dark,empty hole with light. I hope you can heal from your loss.

So sorry about your loss. Over the last 18 months I have lost 3 of my siblings & 2 of which were complications from bad eating habits all their lives. I have gained back 25+ lbs ( stress eating from heart break ) but I am back on track as I am now afraid the same will happen to me & I want to dance at my youngest grand daughters wedding & she is only 2 months old right now. God will be with you through all of this. Ask for his guidance & wisdom & listen to what he tells you.
