Thank you for your welcome

[Guest guest]

I would like to thank everyone who welcomed me to the group. And I apologize for not doing it sooner. A couple of observations: This group is FANTASTIC in the support you give each other and I hope to be more active in the future. When I saw the prayer list the first time I was in shock ... because you don't usually find that kind of thing any more. It's great to see that people really care about each other and actually pray for each other. I printed out the last prayer list and am adding it to my own list. Please add my family to the prayer list. Christmas is supposed to be a happy time when we celebrate the birth of our Savior ... but this Christmas was not good for my family. On Christmas Eve two of our sons-in-law really "messed" up (they were together) and now our two daughters are facing divorces. Their marriages were rocky before now but are definitely

over now. Needless to say this has been a really difficult week and will be for a while to come. Both daughters are doing much better today and are dealing with things in a positive way but, as a mother, it really hurts to see them go through this. I don't understand why this is happening but know that it's in God's hands and He will see us through it. Because of the stress I "let my emotions control me" and gained 2 pounds at weigh in yesterday. But today is a new day and the beginning of a new week and I promise myself to do better ... just for today!!! Tomorrow will take care of itself when it gets here. Keeping my food sheet and now I'm going to go walk on my treadmill (exercise is a good stress reliever!!). Here's wishing everyone a good day today and lots of hugs. ((Hugs)) Jeanette

Jeanette, I'm so sorry about your family problems - - things like this are bad at any time of the year, but for something to happen right at Christmas time is even worse. Our hearts and prayers go out to your daughters, and to you as their "hurting" mother. We mothers would like to take our children's hurts upon our own shoulders if we could, but all we can do is offer our shoulders and our arms to console them and pray that their pain will ease as time goes on. It is all in God's hands, but we can ask that He soften the pain and give us direction - - -

(((HUGS)))

Glad you feel welcomed Jeanette ~ but sorry to hear about the problems in your family. May God help your daughters and you deal with this ~ and may He also watch over your sons-in-law. This is a terrible time of year for anything like this to happen ~ are there children involved ?

NOW you let God help you too !!!!!! I'm an emotional eater too.... so I know what you're dealing with there !!!! Prayers and blessings to you and yours, Randie

For what it is worth Jeanette, I often let my emotions control me. A new year and new resolve. Got my Choice is Yours out this morning early and will go through it again later today. Have a lot to undo.

Have a very good year, am looking forward to getting to know you.

Jeanette,

We have all let our emotions control us at some point in time. I keep a food journal religiously! I firmly believe it's the way to keep me accountable in between my weigh ins...and when I have a gain I can go back and see what went wrong and try to change it. You've got determination and we've all got tomorrow. I too am looking forward to getting to know you better.

Hugs,
