Revenge body in the making

Goodday,
So I am going trough a divorce. I used to be a bodybuilder 12 years ago. Met my wife and had a baby. So left all the exercise and wuit smoking. Picked up a huge amount of weight. 35kg to be exact. My wife said she preffered me this way. Everytime I tried getting back into exercising and clean diet, she would say that I am doing it for other girls. So 3 months ago I weighed 123kg As of this morning, I am weighing in at 98 kg. I am so happy and proud of myself because this was done with zero support. I still want to lose 8-13 kg and start building muscle again. Going trough a divorce is bad and I am not in the mood for exercising, but my diet stays on point.
I will start again with the training on Monday and try to rebuild my confidence day by day.

Sorry to hear about your situation. But you definitely got this!! As much as you may not be in the mood to exercise, it's a great stress reliever. Once you get going I think you'll get back into the routine quick3

All the very best. You have done so well this far. You will get back to the person you know yourself to be. Not as revenge but as restoration.2

I hear you- minus the body building and swap out girls for guys- I was in a similar situation. Welcome- you got this3

Good luck on your journey, I am glad you picked up on your passion again.1

I think revenge was the right word2

Great job! Having a negative person, a person who wants you to fail, or a person who doesn't care to hold you to account, can be so toxic. I make no assumptions in what I don't know, but it seems like you've really had a turn around! Keep it up2

Living well is the best revenge4

All women and probably all men say "you are getting in shape, dieting because of someone else". I just ignore it and keep moving forward. I also do my workouts before she gets out of bed so she can't say I am taking time from her. We've been together for 35 years now.1
