I was going to blog about my sad feelings tonight, but instead I will just wonder if anyone noticed that my weight keeps going down?
It is always easier to say how much you weigh when you have lost a bunch of it.
I was up to 268 p when he left and I am now down to 228p. I have lost 40 pounds. My job has helped me lose a bunch and I am ready to start working out and doing dance again. My goal is to be a size ten this time next year.
I will not give up and it will happen because I have changed my way of eating.
I actually eat the foods i love now and not what he loved.
I love all the color foods and he was meat, potatoes, pasta and corn . He always had junk in the house.
Now when I buy a bag of candy I make two small cups for my girls and give the rest to my co workers instead of eating half the bag. I will buy a small bag of chips and share it with the girls instead of buying two big bags and eating half a bag myself.
A happy meal is enough for me now. I can even turn down offers of goodies from co workers. I have also found that if I eat and snack at work and then eat very tiny portions at dinner I still loose weight.
A friend gave me a box full of shape magazines. She was going to burn them with the trash last week and without looking in the box I said I love reading magazines I will take them. I actually like the magazine. Not good for my ego if I just look at the pics, but if I use the exercises in there I will be looking mighty fine when I hit goal.

Remember, dear friend. Success in any goal is savoring every moment and enjoying the journey more than the arrival. Every success, no matter how small, and no matter how unnoticed by others, is no less a sweet success, and you certainly deserve each and every one!

 Good for you  You are not only surviving but getting on with your life and showing him and others that you achieve what YOU want. Sometimes it's hard for people that see you all the time to notice the difference, but wait until you run into someone that you haven't seen for a while and they will be sure to comment. It was probably the stress of the relationship that made you eat to begin with so losing weight and eating healthier is a sign that you are moving forward. Try to cheer up a little and hold on to all the good that is happening for you right now. Best wishes
