The Church Ladies
« on: January 17, 2013, 03:11:23 PM »
I've just spent several days with very little control over what was available to eat.  Add to that the very sad circumstance of my brother's sudden death from a heart attack and I really didn't care what I ate.  The bottom line is that it was short-lived and I'm back to FTSing and it takes longer than 4 days to regain 88 pounds.  The clothes still fit so I'm back to normal.  (I don't use the scale anymore.)

In the grand scheme of things, we need to be healthy to help us deal with what life throws at us.

And, if you smoke - STOP IT!  I know it's a horrible addiction and it's hard but do it anyway!

 Words cannot express the sorrow you would be feeling at your brother's sudden death Andrea, nor can condolences fill the empty space he would leave.  Prayers to you and your family.

In the grand scheme of things, you are correct - we need our health.

God bless
Failure can be measured by the steps we don't take.
