Hello OH friends. I have been away for a bit and I am back for the moment... I am planning to start back regularly for AMAW next week, that is my goal anyway. My mom passed away last week and I've been having a really tough time. I want to thank those *****ached out to me, please know I really appreciated the love and support. Now, we are trying to get my dad situated and settled and it has become quite an issue that has my family a bit divided. I just want what is best for my dad and we don't all see eye to eye on that. I am really struggling with this and have not been sleeping. I am also back to work, still caring for my dad as much as I possibly can and I'm close to a breaking point. I will keep it together for my dad, always.
In the past few weeks, I've not been good about my vitamins, planning meals or exercise. I've not lost or gained weight, the scale hasn't moved. I have been eating protein forward with many distracted BLT's too numerous to count. However, no slippery slope carbs, no sugar - nothing sweet and I am proud of that. I've worked too hard to get here and I am ready to get back on track.
Today I have a meal plan, I am going to the gym and I have my vitamins. It's a start.
Have a good day all.

So sorry all of this is so stressful. It's hard on everyone, and having siblings and differences of opinions it truly makes it tough!
Glad you have your meal plan ready and you're going to the gym!
Take care of yourself, so you CAN take care of others! (I need this reminder as well!)

Thank you, Pamela. You are right about taking care of myself which is exactly why I am back to planning and especailly the gym today - I've missed it and need it badly.

Sorry to hear about the passing of your Mom, there is nothing I could say to make the hurt go away or make you feel better, but know my thoughts are with you!
