It's been a while...

Sorry it's been so long since my last post, there has been so much going on around here. About 2 months ago I was going through a lot of turmoil and split from my husband for a week. We talked and both came to realize that not only was I going through a lot of depression I felt overwhelmed with the load of responsibilities I have. So we decided that I would start going to see a psychiatrist and he would help more around the house and that we would see a marriage counselor. Things are so much better now, our relationship is strong and I am so glad I didn't make a stupid choice of leaving him. We moved to Chester, closer to family and I have now started training to become a police officer for Henrico County. I haven't applied yet because I want to make sure I pass the fitness test. I have been going to the gym everyday. I have now been able to run a little over a quarter mile and walk 2 miles, and I have increased my weight training and can now go over 100 pounds with my legs and over 50 pounds with my arms along with 70 sit ups. I usually leave the gym so exhilarated and not ever without a smile because everyday I have milestones that I accomplish! I'm still having trouble eating and have to actually set times during the day that I make myself eat. I'm never hungry and I usually throw up because of that, but I'm trying more now than I was before. When I had my 3 month check up the doc and nutritionist were very angry at me because I wasn't eating more than 50 cals in a day and not drinking or taking my meds. No wonder I was depressed, right?? So anyways I'm eating about 700 cals and taking all my meds, the only problem I have is getting enough fluids. I reached my second goal of 200 pounds a little while back and now am working on my 3rd goal of 170.
