Husband asked for a divorce

I have been married 18 years. I was a 185 pounds when I met my husband and over those 18 years grew to 350 pounds. He never made a negative comment about my weight but did express concern for my health. When I started checking out gastric bypass surgery at first he was against it saying that he was afraid I wouldn't make it through surgery. But after he spoke to several people who had the surgery he said he supported me 100%. He is active Navy and left for a 6 month deployment in October 2005. I had the surgery in January 2006. I was very excited to suprise him with the new me and be able to do so many new things together that we had been talking about. In March, 4 days before my birthday he called me from overseas and told me he wanted a divorce and that he met another woman and was going to be with her. I was devastated. I have taken a downhill slide with my health and he returned back to the states April 4 and has been saying very hurtful things to me. I have moved into my own apartment and have been going to counseling but I feel like my world has fallen apart. I am not sure if I will ever know why this happened.
