SmallSteps, I'm glad to see you come back. I didn't see the post from last week you're referring to until I did a search just now.
It seems your username is VERY appropriate. Life and grief and dealing with weight issues is a series of small steps. Some days the steps are even steps backward - but we almost always manage to realize that isn't the direction we want to go and start making those steps forward again.
Best wishes for every journey in life to carry you forward at a pace that works for you.
