Been on and off for awhile on my fitness journey. But I am finally doing it and not stopped this time. I am in the middle of a divorce and this fitness journey is the best therapy I have found . Thank you all for having me . If anyone is doing the same please drop a comment as to what helped you .

You’re right, weight loss was like therapy. It was something I could throw myself into, as much as I’d thrown myself into that business and those family relationships.
At the risk of sounding like a nut job, take advantage of the anguish and put it to use. All hurts fade and heal, but I was able to harness it and make it a power for good, and create habits before it did.
In retrospect, what was the lowest point in my life was actually a new beginning. Sure didn’t feel like it at the time.
I sincerely wish you a similar experience. I’d say “sans the pain”, but you know what? It was a learning experience I probably needed.
PLMK if you need any help navigating. Using these boards, with their friendly, (usually!) nonjudgmental advice, has been an amazing experience. It’s been a lot like developing a second family. These MFP users are great!!!!!
Today is my first day on here. Im a nurse. I’m struggling with gaining weight after a divorce. And this past year I just ate what I could when I had time. Then I got covid and life became even more difficult. I should be a role model for health. But I’m not and it saddens me. I could use friends for motivation.
