I miss my dad. I have been crying nearly every night for the last 2 weeks. In the middle of my sobs, I grab a snack and try and eat until the pain goes away. Night after night, this has been my routine. That stops now.
My father was a very religious man, and if what he believed is true, then I know I'll see him again one day.
I am going to spend the next 31 days doing exactly what I did the first 31 days of losing this weight; I am going to give up the soda and the snacking. I am going to allow myself to deal with my emotions. It would help if I had someone to talk to about my loss, but I don't, and that's just the hand I was dealt.
Now, I am not promising a huge loss for the month of October, but I am going to give it my best shot.
Again, I appreciate everyone's encouraging words through this difficult time for me. I truly, truly appreciate them.
Oh, and I've been trying to comment on some blogs, but stupid Blogger won't allow it, so sorry, folks!

I am so sorry to hear about your loss Erin. And I cvan understand the drowning of your feeling with food. I am really good at that. Its great that you have recomitted yourself to this weight loss journey. I pray that God grants you comfort and peace in your time of need.
You are in my thoughts and prayers! I believe what your father said 100% that you will absolutely see him again one day! =)
If I were you I would not set any definite weight loss goals for the month just changes you are going to make. The second I say a number I am going to hit I am doomed, it never happens!
Chin up!
