I invite you to join our weight loss group - I myself have lost 123 lbs, and believe me your story could have been mine - I've forgiven myself for not leaving the relationship earlier - it has been harder for my kids to forgive me. I have remarried to a wonderful person who fully supports me and understands when I more sensitive about some issues than others. Glad you found that kind of support as well. It is hard to build trust but it can be done, just like the weight loss can be done once we take control of our lives back again. Good luck and contact me if you want to chat. Jenna (JennaCanada)

Hi my name is Angie and I am a 37 year old mother of 2 teenages, boy 17 and girl 15. I reconnected with my very first boyfriend I ever had, we "went together" for like 4 months when we were 12 and we never saw or heard from each other again. We both joined e-harmony this past winter and reconnected after 25 years. I am in the process of making some changes in my life. First and foremost my weight. I was always very skinny with shape to my body, even after I had both of my kids, when I turned 30 I started dating someone who was very mean both verbally and emotionally, and I started to feel as worthless as he said I was. I went to food for love and comfort. 3 1/2 years later he physically assaulted my son and I left, but I still feel guilty for the things my kids went through because I didn't leave him right away. The man I am with now treats my kids like they are his, but I get very nervous and defensive about them, and I need to learn to relax. So I am here to learn how to have a happy and healthy relationship that will last forever, lose weight and keep it off, learn to relax and not take things so personally, love myself, get rid of the guilt, get a better job that I enjoy going to everyday, and learn how to communicate effectively and have my boyfriend learn to open up and talk.

I joined TOOLS because:
 I want to build my self-esteem, learn to love myself, learn to relax, let go of emotional eating, lose weight, and build a lasting realtionship.
You are offered your dream job. What job is it?:
 Anything administrative in a medical setting. Setting appointments, scheduling surgeries, checking people in for appts/surgeries, etc.
My favorite domestic animal is (if you choose dog be specific with breed etc):
 Cat
Why:
 Cat's because they are low maintainence. They will come up and cuddle with you, but aren't demanding. You fill their food, water, and clean the cat box and they are good to go.
A famous Chef will prepare anything you want. What do you order:
 Shrimp scampi, filet mignon, baked potato and a salad.
Why:
 Because that is what I am hungry for right now.
Five people either dead or alive you would have at your fantasy dinner party::
 Princess Diana, Jennifer Aniston, Patrick Dempsey, Faith Hill and Tim McGraw
Why:
 Princess Diana because I always admired her, she was in a loveless marriage but stuck it out as long as she could for her boys, until the day she died her children came first, and she was a princess, every girl dreams of being a princess!! Jennifer Aniston because she is a great actress and doesn't live her life for the media, she is a successful strong person, and she dumped Brad Pitt!! Patrick Dempsey because I have had a crush on him since I was a kid and watched the movie Can't Buy Me Love, he is as gorgous now as he was then!!! YUMMY Faith Hill and Tim McGraw because they are the american dream to me. They are famous country singers, who juggle that success while keeping their private lives as low key as possible to raise their girls. I love them!!
