I would just like to tell you a true story about my friend:
At the age of 28 she lost her first husband and childhood sweetheart in a motorbike accident, this left her with three children, a baby on the way and no money. But she struggled through and some years later met a guy who she thought would look after her, he was turned out to be a control freak, horrid to her children and after several years of abuse she plucked up courage and left him deciding it was just her and the kids from then on.
She brought up the kids well and all but one flew the nest, she always worked but always had to rob peter to pay paul. It was hard for her. During this time she had grown to a size 16, had no self esteem or confidence and worked part time in a care home struggling with depression and even once contemplated suicide. After hitting rock bottom she decided to do something about it all, she felt she had too for the sake of her children. So she studied and furthered her education, got herself a better well paid job, (working with me), joined the gym, ate healthily, got her nails done, and then GUESS WHAT.....
she then met a millionaire, she really has ..and two years down the line, she is a size 12, happy and my GOD you want to see the mansion she lives in. She wants for nothing He even bought her a sports car for her birthday. Dreams can come true, and the nicest part of it all the first thing he did last christmas was buy a big enough table for all her children and their families to sit around so they could all spend christmas together as one. Its just lovely as they make each other so happy.
