That's what we all are trying to learn.. to accept the new life we live and mourn the past.

There is no easy way to make adjustments to you life. It all comes at a price. But you sound as if you know what to do. Glad you kinda like the new you. That is a big plus.

My husband is a diabetic and I am on a low fat diet so I read all the labels and we often sit down to two different meals. But we're adjusting. And still here.
