Again, thank you all so much for your support. It means a lot. I feel like I'm starting to get over the shock. Life's been a bit perfunctory this past week, and now it's all sinking in. So many unsaid things. Some of them better unsaid. Some of them I should have said more.
Great things, what you went through with your mum sounds horrific. I know it's hard to shrug off the guilt, but it sounds to me like you did the responsible and kindest thing. If the situation had been reversed, I'm sure your mum would have had the same concerns and made the same conclusions as you.
As you say though, it goes a long way to showing us where we need to change. It's so easy when you're young and healthy to think that you're invincible, no matter how fat you are. I know I'm not invincible but I want to slim down to improve my odds. I'm back on the diet now and strangely missed it - the routine, the structure. Think I need a bit of structure at the moment.
