Well, woke up early today, couldnt sleep. I have another showing today and I really really need this oneor the one from Sunday to go through. I don't have much time left. I need this damn house to sell so I can move on with my life. I have so many things that need to be resolved yet and I've been mutting them off...I realized on Sautrday how much I'm gonna miss the kids when they are no longer around. I need to start getting up earlier and walking or swimming to start getting back into shape. I realized through a friend last night how much I really do want to drop those extra pounds...I wanna lose about 30-40 pounds and I'd be happy with myself...but again that's gonna take some money (to buy the right foods) and time and living by myself will allow me to keep that food in the house instead of being scarfed down by teenagers and I'll definitely have the time...I mean what else will I be doing...

Sounds like you have the right outlook Kev; now that you\'re starting over you can start a new diet and exercise routine. Fingers crossed that the sale goes through!
I lost 35 lbs via the divorce diet. Now that I have lost it, I am fighting to keep it off. I feel so much better and think I look better too! It definitely makes you feel better.
I hope that your house sells, I wish mine would sell too! Frustrating to say the least.
Starting over has been good for me. I have had to step up to the plate and I am proud of where I am now. It is a struggle everyday, but I am happy and that means the world to me.
Hang in there. I believe that everything happens for a reason. You have such a bright future ahead of you. You may surprise yourself and realize how happier you can be just by doing things for yourself and making you happy :)
I have my fingers crossed for you! You definately need to get out of that house and get on with your life.
I\'ll say a prayer that one of these showings pan out cause you so desperately need to move on and can\'t until you are out of there. Two showings in 3 days is AWESOME! That in itself is a good sign. Right??? Your health is also important...reminder to self...get back to the gym yourself and continue playing racquetball!
Good for you Kev. Thinking about yourself and what you would like to do. I understand missing the kids, how can parents not miss having them there everyday.
My friend, My prayers are with you. I\'ve sent along a few angels to help you and protect you. Peace, Donnie
I\'ll be praying that your house sells soon. I can relate to the losing weight idea... I wish I had a magic wand to make it fall off of me. Take care!
Oh my sweet friend, you are at least at the point that your property is listed. Through your eyes I foresee the impatience that will come to me soon.
I am praying for you and for the sale so that you can move on. I just HATE things that are not under my control. They make me mad!!
Don\'t worry about the weight. It\'s nice for it to drop but when you are ready for it the time will come and you will ENJOY being active. My best friend in high school went away to a college out of state. A year later when we saw each other she said \"My God, how depressed are you? You always gain weight when you are sad.\" Funny. That was the 2nd year with stbx.
My sweet Kev, give yourself permission to tackle one thing at a time. So funny that the teenagers that you love are the same that you seem to sabotage your healthy eating habits for. Maybe they would be agreeable to a heathy change in diet. If not, give it time.
If you need some ideas for exercise in the pool....I have some excellent ideas. wink, wink, nudge, nudge......
Miss you! Take care! ((((Hugs)))) Margie
