    You're doing great! 30 pounds is nothing to sneeze at!

    Regarding the OTHER matter. This is going to be a very long and emotional road for you. Hopefully you'll be able to use your health goals and habits as a guide on the journey ahead.

    Been there, kid. I have 1 more year of paying HIM spousal support. We were married for 15 years. He decided to give up on life and stopped working. He expected me to support him and cook and clean and everything else, while giving nothing in return. Literally nothing. I can't believe I stayed on as long as I did. But we all get to a tipping point on our own. I filed for divorce and moved out of our house 4 years ago. I am SO happy! He finally got himself together enough to find a job. Part time, but it helped me get the court to lower the support I was paying. Like I said, one more year! Hurrah!!!

    Just take care of YOU and screw him! He doesn't deserve you! (even though I don't know you! LOL!)

    First and foremost, congratulations on achieving a 30 lb. weight loss. I'm sure you worked hard on it. Secondly, good choice to hike instead of binge. Lastly, I never like to hear that a marriage is over, but every couple is unique and if in the long run, you are happy, then the end of your marriage is perhaps the beginning of a new and better chapter in your life.

    I hope you find the support you and your family need to get through this until you see the other side of it.

    Thank you for sharing your success and your story.

    Best of luck!

    Congratulations on your weight loss, and the decision to go for a hike rather than comfort yourself with food! That's really a milestone in this emotional time. It really shows your self control, clear minded commitment to a heather you! Your children will be so happy with these changes you've made!

    I am sorry to read of your separation, but proud of you for not letting it become an excuse or derail your progress. Celebrate how far you've come and keep focused on your goals. I do hope there is a light at the end of this tunnel for your relationship, but you taking control of you is excellent! WTG!!

    THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH! You have no idea how much all your kind words of support have cheered me up and kept me motivated today.

    A special thank you to all of you who shared your own stories with me. Hearing that others have been where I am now and have come out the other side stronger and happier has given me a new perspective. Sometimes it's hard to see clearly when you're right in the thick of things, but hearing that things do get better from people who have done it themselves makes all the difference.

    My children are a huge source of inspiration for me - both in my weight loss journey and in life in general.

    Again, THANK YOU to this entire community. I feel so supported and grateful to each of you.
