Default WOW Ups and Down of life!

Hello all!! I know it's been about a month since I posted..for those of you that have followed my crazy goings and comings..last I posted I was going to come back to the state I got married to finish my divorce and fight for custody of my baby..well I got custody of the baby but I had to state in the state I was married which left me pretty much alone with no home, job or family..I stay with a friend while I looked for work and a place to live..meanwhile I had to let the baby stay with her father and his family since I had no permanent residence, this took a horrible toll on me my heart was breaking and my new way of life since I had to eat what was offered to me, can't be picky ya know..it was all looking pretty bleak, then after 3 weeks of this horrible ordeal my husband talked to me and we decided to stay together and cancel our divorce..plus I get to move back to the state of my family and away from his which was the major cause of our split..I am very happy because I get my baby and my family all at once so once I get my to my new state I get to start all over again with atkins and I am going to need all your support like before..I had lost 30 lbs which my husband loved lol but I think I have gain some back..I just wanted to update all of you who wish me good luck last time I posted and hoping to have your support in my new life with my husband, my baby and a new me

Glad to hear that you and your husband worked it out. Speaking from experience, bad in laws can be toxic to the marriage.

Good luck

What a wonderful gift for your child, to have Mom and Dad staying together. It's a wonderful time of the year to be truly thankful for your family. I am so glad that things are looking up. I wish you continued happiness and great joy!
Merry Christmas!!!
