I'm sorry I haven't been on.
Two sad tragedys. On July 4, a dear friend of mine that I met on a Health board was killed when the elevator she was in plummented to ground with her in it.
She was so dear to many of us. Jan was from Oklahoma. We had posted together every day for over a year and a half.
Jan was 54.
I know I will meet her in Heaven. She was a wonderful testimony for the Lord.
The week before, my son's friend from grade school was killed in an car wreck. He was 25.
I tell you all this because it is true. Life on earth is short. We have no guarantees. Only that we are guaranteed to face death.
The friends we meet on earth we hold dear in our hearts. Nothing can replace a dear friendship. You ladies that have become friends through daily and weekly postings, never know what each may encounter after you've made your posts.
It's so important to stay connected.
Jan's husband informed us by getting our email from her.
Look at the lives Jan touched through modern technology.
She had lost over 100 lbs. In the recent months Jan had been diagnosed with Graves disease.
She was the main reason I became motivated to lose weight and get my life on track.
Her memory I'll hold in my heart forever.
I want each of you to know how wonderful I think you are and we've never met either. We are here for encouragement through our trials and struggles we all face in over coming our food habits.
The friendship part is the icing on the cake.
Thank you for the help I've received here on your forum.
I'll post my LAWL tomorrow. I'm at an 8lb loss for 4 weeks. I'm sure I could be doing better. I'm having trouble eating and also trouble with my times.
See you later. God Bless!
