I have lost nearly 10 pounds in just a little less than 2 weeks.  My Mom is recuperating in a hospital and the stress while she was still in critical condition made me forget that I love to eat.  This had never happened to me before.  I think there was even a day when she was still in critical condition that I forgot to even drink water for half of the day.  All I knew was I had to take care of her — I forgot about myself.

After 2 weeks, even though I am lighter on the scale, I am weaker.  At night, I am always tired yet I have trouble sleeping properly.  At the moment, I am trying my best to eat even when I have no appetite.  If I continue this way, my skin will dry up and I’m afraid I will look years older.  Last week, my face was already dry and I looked tired.  Now, after remembering to take care of myself, my skin looks better and has regained moisture.  I still haven’t returned to my previous appetite but I’m trying to regain my health back.  I don’t want to be the next in line to the hospital bed.
