I too have been here for the last two years and was so hoping for a better outcome. I do not know how I would survive losing a child. I am so sorry for your loss. I pray for peace for your family. Now you will have some closure and you know your son did not leave and not want to contact you, God had choosen Chris to be with him. I hope that gives you some peace. I ask God to wrap his love around you and your family and give you strength and peace. |

| I know that dreams can be scary. I have had them of my children dying before and wake up devestated even though I know it was a dream. I will sit there and cry. I am sure it was much worse for you with your son missing but it was just a dream. You have hope. Praying for your son and your family. | |||

Shannon, I know you are having a hard time right now, sounds like worse then usual. I feel for you. I am sure it is harder then before knowing that 2008 was around the corner and now here it is without Chris home. Keep hoping and praying for his safety and that some information will come as to where he is and what he is doing. Everyone is here to support you and we are your sounding board so let us have all those feelings you have, you can say anything you need to on here, love, anger, disappointment, scared, hope, wishes, all of it. It may not change the situation but you do not have to worry about unloading. We gladly accept!! Everyone cares about you and your family. I pray to God that he brings some news to you soon. |

| I am so sorry for what you are going through. I have said prayers and lit candles but hardly ever post but I am always checking in waiting to hear for good news. You are so strong, I do not think I could do what you are doing, laundry and being the wife and mom. I would never wish this on anyone but you are so strong and I admire your strentgh. I can understand completely that you feel like your life is puzzles pieces all over the place. I think we can feel like that in many different situations. I went through a divorce and the loss of my dad and they do not even compare to what you are going through. I am so glad that this site is hear for you. You are keeping your faith and you are taking care of your family, you feel however you need to feel and remember how many people you have never met care so much for you and your family. I check in and my heart breaks for you. I just can not wait for some good news. God is with you and I hope brings Chris home safely soon. | |||

I just happend to find this and said a prayer for your son. My kids are my life and I have had a couple of nights where they fell asleep at a friend's house and did not come home. So I headed out after them to make sure everything was okay. Of course it was but that feeling of driving down the road, wondering if I was going to find them in the ditch or something. Extremely difficult and scary. I could not imagine all the emtions you are stuggling through. My prayers are with your family and you son. I pray God will bring him back to you soon and he will have some goofy explanation for all of this. We have seen it in the news where others have done this and let people think they were missing. I am not saying that is what your son is doing but let's hope it is something like that instead of some other options. We love our kids no matter what. As long as he is safe. People say things becasue they think they are helping. I would love to help but the only thing I can do is pray. Pray does change things. Just keep doing your best to find you son and keep hopes high!! |

| Hi everyone!! I have been gone this last month from posting. I have been reading your posts but my thyroid was all messed up and I was starving. I gave up on the diet thing and now my thyroid is a little high. The doctors are working on it but I went back to the diet. I gained 6 pounds during this becasue I was not trying. I have lost three of it again and went for a 2 1/2 mile walk last night. I sure wished they would get things straightened out for me. I am still not feeling the best. Chris I am sure those two pounds are not going to stick to you, you know how weight fluctuates. I understand how it bothers you though. I am one to get on the scales way to often and then if I do not see any results, I like to give up. Just keep up the good work. | |||

| Hi Donna, I just wanted to say hang in there with all the stress in you life. Just remember all the good things about yourself and even though you are tired and emotionally drained, try and take a walk. Nothing fast, nice and slow, but it helps in so many ways. God Bless you. | |||

| I too have fallen of the wagon and have stayed off and gained some weight back. Why can't I just do what needs to be done. I know I will feel better, look better, be healthy. Why do I have to like food so much??!! Why can't pizza and candy be healthy and low in calories. They can transplant a heart, come on! | |||

| I have fallen off the wagon and gained four pounds back and can not seem to get back on track. UGH! I went on an antidepressent a few years ago. I am 43 and swear I have been in menopause. I would let things that bother me if my life, not just bother me but make me sit and cry and feel miserable. If I am not taking the anitdepressent boy do I get crabby. The doctor has told me there is no way I have been starting menopause or anything becasue I was too young. I have had fibroid tumors and an enlarged uterus since my late twenties. In my thirties they just got worse and then I had to have cyst removed twice from my right ovary and then the right ovary removed. At 42 I had to have a hysterectomy and he could not get my uterus out without cutting in half becasue of the size. I have my left ovary.
I know things have happend in my life, divorce and stuff but to be that emtional is weird. I mean a couple of times I felt like I had no control. I just could not stop worrying and crying. I have asked the doctor and they have always said that I could not start in my middle to late thirties and I am probalby just starting now. They also said there is no test to take to see. Am I just crazy emotional?? |

| I have been on synthyroid for years. Actually about 25 years. I just switched a week ago to Armour. I am already doing better. I just could not lose much weight on the synthriod, always tired, moody. It has only been a week and without trying I lost 2 pounds and I am feeling better. I really need to wait and see how it goes but find what works the best for you. My doctors never told me about anything else, I read up on it and requested to be switched. Just keep an eye on how you feel. | |||

| Okay, ladies. I am having a hard time today. Just seem hungry today. I was wondering how do we know what to take in for calories?? Of course I have done this site and it is way lower then all the rest. I have done two or three other sites and they are closer to one another for what my intake should be. I have even done one to calculate how many with me having my thryoid problems.
Sometimes I wonder if I have a hard time becasue of my thyroid or my calories. Any good advice out there for me? |

| Well, it sounds like we have lots of wonderful people joining the women over 40. Well, it has helped me already. I really have no one to do this with. I have tried to do it with friends but if they are not in the right mind set as you, you do not get anywhere.
I have hit 200!!! I need to lose a lot more but I finally hit that mark and I will take it. I had lost 20 pound about two years ago and kept it off for a year and a half until I had my hysterectomoy. Then I got bored and started snacking more and all that. So at least I am I getting back on track. I have started going home and making sure I do a little excerise most days. I rode my bike around 5 miles on Saturday and went for a mile and a half walk on Sunday. I had my granddaughters and that was quite a bit of movement right there. Nothing compared to some people but the fact that I am motivated enough to be doing it, WOW, I feel good. I thank all of you for the post and all the support you guys are giving each other. |

| A 11 mile bike ride. WOW! Good for you. Like I said I eat more calories than you and do not have much advice for anything different but keep up the excellent work you are doing and I would think something would have to budge soon. | |||
