Hi Everybody,
I'm Debi - joined EF in Oct 08. Joined at 130 & the other day weighed in at 118, so something's working!! I live in Brooklyn, Ohio a small suburb of Cleveland, but live close enough to enjoy seeing the Cavs play at Quicken Loans Arena, the Browns at the Stadium, along with many many groups, singers who come to town. I have 2 girls but they can take care of themselves. A husband??? Long story - made short. He's been in a coma since Christmas Day 05, is completely paralyzed and left leg amputee. So, at this point in my life I'm lost. Always hold out hope for a "maybe" or "miracle" but it doesnt look like its in the plan. So my thoughts are, 'where am I, who am I, what do I do? Would never leave him but feel 'empty' inside. Came to EF hoping to get some ideas on how to get into shape, wanted to make some friends, have someone to chat with. Some things are working out ok, others arent. Overall, everyone has been great on EF with the exception of today - made the mistake of posting in Chat about returning from Vegas (a 3-day rest) and I got slammed by the guys there. Not a pleasant experience. But we live and learn, and we learn by our mistakes.
I am an RN and do homecare right now. Would love to move to a sunny climate but that will come in time. Would love to get to know some of you better. Have had the pleasure of meeting Tatyana & being greeted by her which was nice.
Thanks for listening to my life story!
