New motivation

[Sophie74656 1,572]

I'm so sorry to keep talking about my personal life

But my latest divorce drama has given me a new motivation to work even harder to loose more weight. I want to bump into him months from now and for him to see me looking all sexy and skinny....and maybe on the arm of a good looking guy, while he is still all alone.

Is that petty?

[Christinamo7 4,041]

it is whatever it is.

but, I do not let my ex husband have that sort of influence on my behavior.

That used to be called a "revenge diet." Now it's "revenge health."

No it's not petty....it's just how you are feeling at this moment. You might change your mind in a few months...hopefully - in the future- you just won't even care what he thinks!

Do this for you! who cares what he thinks, or anyone else for that matter.

Yep, petty but Normal.

Definitely normal. I was seperated from my ex husband and going thru the divorce when I started my journey. At the time he had left me for a skinny blonde. That was close to 2 years ago. I decided to get healthy for me and my son. He and his new blonde were verbally abusive, called me fat and ugly even in front of my son. I used it as motivation and grew stronger from it.

I lost 80lbs pre op. And am down over 150lbs at this point. I'm happier, healthier and now skinnier than him and his blonde who seem miserable.

Needless to say they keep their mouths shut now. Karma.

Not the reason behind my journey. I did this for me. But yea, it's a bonus and it feels great!

Youve got this.
