i've been really depressed the past couple of week trying to muster up the courage to leave my boyfriend. To complicate things i'm moving back in with my mom and of course moving my 1 year old daughter as well..... Last night was the first night i slept at my mom's house and it was such a relief.....I had been trying to supress my depression with food again, and although i was trying not to eat everything in sight i did gain a pound or 2 back.... I'm already starting to feel like i can move on a little with my life and get back to being healthy and taking care of myself....I'm very excited for this new chapter in my life to start with just me and my daughter!!!:smile:

    You Go-Girl!!! It sounds like the relationship may have been unhealthy in more ways than one. Here's to a brighter future, a new start and a new you! You can achieve anything you want and be a fantastic role model for your daughter! :drinker:

    be strong, you'll look back someday and realize that you did the best thing for yourself and your daughter. and always remember mister right is out there just waiting for you to be ready to meet him. But as long as your still attached to someone else thats not worthy of your love, you can't meet him. :smile:
    I know this from personal experience. it took me 20 yrs of worthless men to finally find the 1 that God made for me. It was all worth it to have this time today,with my wonderful husband. Our 5yr anniversary was yesterday. :heart:
    good luck and be good to yourself, your worth it.

    So happy for you! I had my husband move out over 2 months ago. It is a daily struggle but deep inside I know I made the right decision. Just keep riding the roller coaster and get through it. Use excercise as a coping device, not food! You can do it! PM me anytime!
