Cindy,

should we be worried about you? you are dropping weight like crazy, is it on purpose or are you too sad to eat? thinking of you sweetie...

Hi Heather,

Thank you for your concern. I am forcing myself to eat three full healthy meals each day and to go for my walks...

I am not however, eating any snacks, I have no hunger at all. And I probably should stop walking, but it is so good for my mental and emotional health, that I will not even consider it. I stroll along slowly, trying not to burn too many calories.

Also, this is my 'losing' time of the month. Soon I will be back in my 'maintenance' time of the month. My body does not realize I am done. I know I need to increase my calories... but I am doing my best right now... and I am proud of myself for that. It is so strange to eat and no do it for enjoyment... I barely taste it or even am aware of the process of eating...

I am trusting the losing will stop soon. I am trusting that if I go 'underweight' momentarily it won't kill me for a very short time. I will get a handle on things very soon. My heart is broken, but I am feeling better each and every day, as more answers are coming in and I can find a place to put this sad event....

Thanks again for your concern, I will be just fine. And I don't think I look sick or malnurished, I still think I look great, just very slim.

Hugs and congrats on your weight today, so exciting my dear.
