Hi Liz, and

I'm sorry to hear about your Mom's passing. I can so relate to your "dark" years. After my sister suddenly died in 1998, I gained nearly 100 lbs so I can understand what you are going through.

This is a wonderful place for support. There is a daily / weekly chat you can join in. The ladies are just a little gift from heaven, we are very blessed to have each other. Hope to see you there.

Hugs !!

Hello, Liz!

Yes, a bout of depression can affect people's lives even when they are climbing their way out of it. You can lose the weight, and we'll be happy to support you!
