My advice is to treat yourself to a great gym and if it is available one of those intro specials to a personal trainer. Or if gym is not in your schedule buy an elliptical machine (i know people who have scored deals on craigslist on this) and get on it 25 minutes per day, 5 days per week.
Post D-day I treated myself to a membership at a lovely, no-attitude gym with a huge number of classes per week, a great pool, a healing therapy pool (which I hang out in under the category of Emotional Injury), etc. I go every single day and it has helped me maintain my sanity and keep my weight more or less stable.

Three years ago after we separated I started losing weight, ended up losing it fairly quickly and drastically as Hlessons and I went through his DD. I kept it off up until the past year when I had my DD. I have put on 15lbs and it has really not made me happy.
I just found out this week I am hypothyroid, so hoping the new meds help with this. We have also started working out together every morning. I am hoping it all works to get me back down.

I lost 20lbs pre-A and kept it off. After dday I couldn't keep food down if I could eat at all. I didn't eat for 7 days at one point and my brother had to force me to eat. I ended up throwing it all up. After I found out about his A I stopped eating again but then I started eating nothing but junk. One meal a day if I could stomach it and then donuts and chips and chocolate and cake. Sometimes its all I wanted. I have gained back every single pound I lost and SO has commented on it. That hurts a lot since I'm already hard on myself. I plan to lose it again, I don't want to ever be this heavy again. I need to lose 40 lbs to be at my goal.

When he left me a week before DD I didn't eat, nor a fortnight after. But I've gained bout 20lbs since. Some present D day was misery weight as he was being a total dick to me.

I lost 26 pounds and looked like a walking dead. That 1st year out no matter what I ate the weight would not come back on. Anyways I got a new job where there is always food laying around. So I have gained back 14 pounds and fluctuate. I would like to stay at this weight. We'll see I could go either way...

Oh my god.
Since this whole ordeal started, I have been yo-yo-ing with 30 pounds. It is a disaster.
I have been cheated on by 3 different men, and I have more DDays than anyone ever should. I am here, just trying to pickup the pieces.

after we separated, i lost about 30 pounds - i was still pretty heavy after having my son - I kept working and managed to lose another 20 lbs...
once we decided to reconcile, I put on 15 almost immediately - I'd like to take them off again but i'm not really killing myself over it
