What a lovely post. You made a good choice - and a smart one, too. It’s good to hear you felt beautiful, and when you feel beautiful, other people see you that way, too.
Go forward!

You are one smart cookie, and your reevaluation sounds so familiar to me…I’ve been in that position too, and you’re right, sometimes you have to stop and re-think. I think you are going to do well with your changes. The recipe is very nice, will try.

Good for you Angel. You’re inspiring me. I’ve been stuck, too, and realized I haven’t been following the WW plan very closely - a bit of Core, a bit of Flex. Not good enough. I will pull out my tracker and use it tomorrow. Thanks for that. And good luck, dear lady! You’re going to get where you want to be.

moving and getting married are both top-level life-stress events, even though they can be positive.

I totally get what you say about grief for a period of your life, even if it’s changed in a good way. Change is hard, and we often don’t give ourselves the time to acknowledge the difficulty of the change.

Keep up the food diary, that really helps!

Oh, Angel, I started to read your latest posts and respoind yesterday, but I thought that such a thoughtful post deserved better than a quick off-the-cuff response. So her I am today. You are young, but wiser than many. I recognize a lot of my own past emotions in what you’re writing about. What you have that I didn’t at your point in life, is a much clearer view of who you are, what you need and what you want. That is to be commended, congratulated , cheered and encouraged. Yay you.
Your insight on mourning one phase of your life sounds ’spot on’ to me. I would only add that becuase the new phase hasn’t started quite yet, don’t underestimate the impact that the “not yet” is having on your emotions. It’s like having a rug pulled out from under you, and you’re not quite on firm ground.
Yes, be with your friends, cook healthily, avoid that boxed food. Your certainly know what to do. I am here cheering you on from the sidelines!
