Don't give up!

Happy Sunday! I'm currently in Atlanta trying to escape Hurricane Irma, but it looks like she followed me here. Well, I decided to take this time and do a blog about working out and trying to stay healthy in life. So, to give a little background, I'm a single mother of an awesome 10 month old boy with absolutely no help. I have gained about 30 pounds total in the last 2+ years of me being back in the states (I used to live in Germany). Now, I know what contributed to my weight gain. 2015 I had surgery to remove 5 tumors from my stomach, then I was separated from my ex-husband, divorced, got pregnant, broke up with my boyfriend, had my son and recently (within the last 2 weeks) had another surgery. Not to mention, my diet wasn't the best initially either.  I'm what you call an "emotional eater." I eat when I'm depressed, angry and sad. It as if I'm trying to fill a void that can never be filled with food, but I continue to try anyway.
