Hi, I'm just getting started. Have been up and down in weight for years. When I'm in a bad marriage my weight goes up, up, up and when I was divorced in the past it went way down. My thoughts were always on food and I know it is just replacing what I'm missing in my relationship. I'm curently married to a man who after 15 years has decided he no longer wants to be married. We are getting divorced but have to live together untill we get things (house etc.) settled. It is very stressfull and I'm going to try and lose weight now. I know it will be easier after I'm out on my own and I'm not so stressed out, but I don't want to keep gaining weight, I'm determined to start losing weight now.
