I quit smoking yesterday. YAY! And soon I will join the YMCA so I can swim in the morning before work starts. I want to get back into shape and lose 10 more pounds. I've lost 9 pounds already since leaving my husband. I am eating better, and am taking care of myself better. I am SO happy to finally be doing things for myself that have long been neglected.

He wasn't healthy for me physically either. He encouraged me to eat junk food. He encouraged me to smoke cigarettes. Yes, he actually did. And, I could never do any physical exercise with him. So, now that he's gone, I can do whatever I want and make some much needed healthy changes.
