Listen To Your Band When Stressed

i know we had this topic not to long ago but....my mother had a massive heart attack and was in the hospital since the morning of the 9th. she passed away this morning. during my time at the hospital and i was there 24/7 i really missed all of you. but with that in mind, and that recent topic we all discussed i kept my diet in check using the cafeteria. (it can be done) and taking frequent walks around the hospital and parking lots. i lost 4 lbs. i know this isn't something that i should even be thinking about but my mom knew how important all of this was to me. she would have been proud. so when something stressful happens in your life, listen to your band.

Thinking of you, Terry, and sending best wishes your way. I'm sorry for your loss and all you've gone through; it's wonderful that you have remained on track throughout.

Yes, the band tightens up for many people under stress, sorry about your loss. Sending Blessings your way

So sorry about your mom. This has to be hard for you. Sending thoughts and prayers your way.

So sorry to hear about the passing of your mother. I know how awful that is, and though time dims the initial pain, the loss of a mom leaves a gaping hole in your heart….and in your life. But how great that you were able to find the strength to stick to your program. That is wonderful.
