    So do I.. Its crazy that we live in one of the wealthiest nations and I have no medical coverage and about $15,000 in medical bills...

      Morning all. I dont mean to be depressing but Im having a terrible day already. Its my husbands 25th birthday today and we got into a terrible argument last night that has carried over into today. We both went to bed angry and I pictured myself driving to McDonalds and getting a big mac meal and scarfing the whole thing down. But I didnt. Then I dreamt about the big mac, so that was the first thing on my mind this morning. Eeeew. I did weigh myself though and Ive lost another 3 pounds. So that helps to keep me motivated. Its just so hard when Im this upset. I just wanna eat eat eat. I think Im gonna go for a walk instead.

      And Jess, I lost my mother to lung cancer 4 years ago, when I was 20. It was devastating, and I really just fell into a deep depression which included binge eating which made me fat and Ecxtasy use to make me skinny. After awhile, I realized that she wouldnt have wanted me to feel sorry for myself, and abuse my body the way I was. So I quit.

      So I admire the way you are handling your loss. You are a model for those of us that dont handle these things well. Just know, that no matter how much it hurts now, it gets easier. Eventually it wont hurt so bad. I miss my mom every single day of my life. But its not crippling anymore. I wish you the best Jess. And Im truly sorry.
      I am sorry you and hubby got into a disagreement...But eating that bad for you food will just put more guilt on you.. Hang in there!

          Good Morning you all...Hope all is well and your Thursday is starting off well. I'm into my 2nd week. Already weighed myself though I wanted to wait until the end of the 2nd week. So far, down 6 lbs! Not too shabby!

          Have a great Thursday!

              Dear Jess,

              I'm so sorry about your mother. I lost my Dad last July, and it's so hard to focus on anything for a while. It seems like the grief lasts forever, but it will eventually get better.

              I'm new to posting, but I've been lurking since February. I feel like I know some of you already. The support you give one another is awesome, and I hope to be able to join in.

                Good afternoon everyone. Read rather quickly through the posts today. Nice to hear about pounds AND inches lost. Jess, I wish I could find some words that would help ease the pain. Even though we think we're ready for it, we never are. All I know from my own experience is that time does help ease the pain, and the shock. That's about the only thing that did it for me. Distance in time. It didn't take it away, it just made it more bearable. You're doing great just being here and continuing your exercising.

                Sandy, I agree, it's disgraceful so many (millions) are without health insurance in this country, while most of the free world offers free health care to their citizens. You don't realize what it's like, till you don't have it.

                Welcome Looseshoes.

                Hope everyone is having a good day today.
