Returning but I dropped 180 lbs

in Infertility
About 1.5 years ago, I did a round of IVF. Successful BUT ended in miscarriage. I met a lot of amazing people on here and they helped me more than anything during that time.
About a week after the miscarriage, I found out my husband was on a dating website and that is when he told me he, "wants to have kids with someone naturally." I can't make this up. I was heartbroken. He thought it was totally ok and fine!
So, after another year of counseling, him getting a narcissist diagnosis (he doesn't believe it), me getting a new puppy (LOVE HER!), me getting a new job and moving across the country...I am ready to try on my own. I am searching for donors and making an appointment with a new gynecologist soon.
I know my infertility diagnosis (endometrial polyps, endometriosis, adenomyosis) greatly decreases my chances of becoming and staying pregnant naturally...but I wanna try before my time runs out. 34 years old and don't have many good egg years left.
So, after dropping 180 lbs of complete asshole, I am back and hoping to have a much easier journey this time. My main source of stress is gone and I haven't been this happy in years.
