Finding Myself

I find myself starting over again. I'm 32 years old with a 3 year old son, and I'm getting a divorce. I have no gainful employment and no marketable skills that anyone needs. I'm also fat; not just one of those women who say they're fat, but truly obese. I'm beyond morbidly obese and into the new category of “Super Morbidly Obese.” All of this is going to change; well, not the divorce, that's certainly happening, but the fat and no job are going to change. 

This is a blog about that journey. It isn't for anyone else, but if you happen to find yourself reading it, don't prepare to be wowed by all my glorious successes, because I'm human and I will fail many times along the way. Prepare to see determination, because I am ready to change my life and start over. Prepare to see emotions, because I'm full of them and they will come out in my writing. Prepare to see me, because I'm under this fat somewhere, and I'm determined to find myself.
