    No but I say congrats to you for making a positive change for yourself especially after an unpleasant event like a break up!

    In 2012 I lost about 25lb and it was definitely done in spite. But now that I've gained the weight back in 4 years, I'm doing it more for myself. Honestly though it's still not 100% for myself and my health, like I know it should be. My husband is military and I want to be more fit when he comes home from deployment.

    I found out my boyfriend had been cheating on me. I decided to show him what he is missing out on. 77lb later and I have new motivators and things keeping me going. But I can definitely say that I succeeded in my goal of showing him what he has missed out on.
