I am so sorry that you lost your job. You and I both know stuffing your feelings with food will not solve anything, in fact, it will make things WORSE!!!

Here's a and I hope things look up.

A simple e-hug is all I can offer... I hope this small gesture is enough to make you smile

Oh no, I'm so sorry!!! =(

But, sometimes you have to give up good things in order to make room for great things. We're all taking a hit right now, you're not alone... Hang in there, things will get better.

Girl, if you just lost your job, and then ate pineapple instead of snickers, you need to get on the nearest table and shake it like it's 1999... 2009...

Crap. Just SHAKE IT! Seriously. Review that: you lost your job (stress), and then said "no" to junk food (traditional stress-relief?). You, my fellow chick, rule. You rock. You super-rock.

I'm sorry you lost your job, I know how scary that can be. When I was laid off years ago, it turned out, in the long run, to be a very good thing.

And BIG CONGRATS on resisting the snickers.
