(boy i thought it was hard last week! :) )thank you!
Boy, that's a tough one, and I'm sorry about you losing your aunt. Losing someone you love is always hard.
Now...I'm not the greatest at this but I have also lost loved ones. The first thing I thought about is what my dad would have said and what he would of wanted me to do. He would of wanted me to be happy for him that he led such a wonderful life and had such a great and loving family. The last thing that he did when he got carried away in the ambulance is put his fists to his chest by his heart and said "I'm proud". That just killed me, lol and I cry just writing it. Think of your aunt when your about ready to take a plunge into whatever food your craving. I bet you she would NOT want you to have it. She would want you to stay strong because she's after all in a better place now. You are the one having to struggle with todays life, so find the willpower to make yourself happy. She's up there and able to see you lose the weight. So if anything she's all for it!
If you have too, which I doubt you do, take a little bite. I keep hearing "take half the amount of food if in a restraunt, a fourth if it's in a fast food restraunt". If it's chocolate, just take a square and turn it away. But, do it for yourself, and your aunt is watching you. I stare at my dads picture alot and I know he wants to see me now skinny. He never got to see me skinny before. Yes, I'm doing it for me, but this is the icing on the cake. She's still with you, just in a different way.
