Hey ladies. On April 1st 2008, I lost my father. It was a shocking and devastating event that was horribly unexpected. He did not have heart disease or anything like that but it appears he died of some form of cardiac arrest. Anyway, I don't mean to gloom up everybody's day as I see you are all making great progress, but I need you guys right now. I need you to get me motivated again and get me back on track. I know you all know the nature of funerals and the like and how all the out of town family flies in and all we do is eat out. And I know you guys know how it feels to want all that comfort food. So right now I need to get back to work. I need to undo this damage and get right again. Help me out you guys.
Now I did not gain anything, but I haven't lost anything either over this two week hiatus. And I know that it takes two weeks of being off schedule to lose cardio fitness levels. So I have to start...once again...from scratch. Well here goes nothin........

I'm very sorry for your loss. I completely understand how losing a loved one can affect your life. That's a huge reason why I'm in this position now. Give yourself time to grieve, but remember to care for yourself. It's easy to forget that right now... but your father would want you to be good to yourself and would be proud of you for continuing to work on your goals. Use exercise as a way to focus and keep your life on track... it can really help with the stress. I commend you for even thinking about this right now... good luck with everything and again, I'm so sorry for your loss.
I'm so sorry. My long time boyfriend's father passed away very unexpectedly on Feb 25th this year. He was in good health - it was an anyurism in his heart that no one knew about. It was the day I had originally planned to kick off my healthy eating.
If you haven't been eating great - that's fine. Comfort food is that because it can help make you feel a little more normal. Like Layla said, if you get stressed out - go sweat it out.
My thoughts are with you and your family right now.
I'm sorry that I didn't say so before, but thank you guys for all of your support and prayers. It's really a comfort to me right now. God Bless.
