Elena,

You look fantastic!!!!!!!!!!!!! You are such a wonderful person and should be so proud of yourself. I know this is so very hard to get through. I also know that you can do this. One day at a time is the way you handled weight loss and one day at a time is the only way to handle this.  Remember all those so frustating stalls, when you thought the damn scale would never move again.... then it finally did? Getting through this pain and sorrow is just like a huge stall. Know there is happiness and good memories at the end of this. It will get better.

Hugs and wishes for peace,

Karen

ONE session at a time is all I can do, multitasking is a fine art that I am still trying to master.

Elena,

You inspire so many people on this board in so many different ways! I haven't had the pleasure of meeting you in person, even tho you're 15 minutes down the road from me... but from watching your progress, strength and bravery in the face of your weight-loss/management and your recent personal tragedy, it's overwhelmingly evident that you are an amazing and beautiful woman inside and out!

Keep it up, girl! There is so much hope and future potential in those bright blue eyes and I have no doubt you'll be at goal before you know it!

Blessing,
Shannon
