Uhh.. that only worked for me once twenty something years ago. I'd decided to leave my job (which had its own drama) to tend to my toddler. My attitude was.. "Oh yeah.. well see how much better I am without you." That little umph being the wee spark that kept healthy eating and regular exercise going.

It's odd. The former spouse would sometimes provoke me to where I'd get so angry.. and then.. shebang.. I could accomplish all sorts of things. Sometimes I thought he'd do it on purpose because it seemed to 'shock' my system into action.
