Divorce and Lap Band
I'm sorry also you have had to go through this I to just went through divorce (14.5 years) and still going through a nasty custody battle.
Just know you are worth the happiness that will find you. That is the first thing i kept telling myself I'M WORTH SOMETHING! You will move on your a strong person or you wouldn't have made the choice to loose weight and take this battle on!
YOU CAN DO IT!
