Six years ago today, I left my ex-husband. It was 2 days after our 17th wedding anniversary and it was the bravest thing I've ever done. It was a day I'll never forget, when he found out I had filed for a separation, he went nuts. I was scared, my kids were scared...
Flash forward 6 years:
Never in my wildest dreams could I have imagined the life I have now. I'm married to a wonderful man who loves me and my children. My children are safe and happy. I live in a beautiful home. I have a great job, I have great friends....and I have taken the steps to get my weight under control, permanently.
Wow! I can't believe how much things have changed and how much I've changed.
Have a great day!
Big Hugs!

Such a hard thing to do but so glad you did!
I hope you are having a great day, too!
Theresa - You are such a strong lady. You should be proud of what you did for your family.
Enjoy your day!!
Happy ends are great......
Change, and when it is for the better, is the most wonderful thing. I think it's amazing that we can never really guess or even dream sometimes what life has in store for us!
I think you are beautiful, inside and out...and I believe that when your soul is in good shape...you attract good things.
Your post gave me tears! In a very, very good way. Change is good. Wishing you continued happiness forever!
How absolutely wonderful - of all the happy endings, this is surely the best. And you deserve every bit of it.

Oh, Theresa! That made me cry! There are many things that we have in common. Including leaving a lousy marriage and finding the loves of our lives. I am so happy for you, and John is an awesome guy. Congrats on your 40lb weight loss thus far too!
A great day!!! You're a rock! xoxo
