What's done is done, don't beat yourself up because of it.
Also, I wouldn't believe he felt out of love either... it just doesn't happen that easy (believe me, I've been in his place).
You're a clever woman, I'm sure you can find a way to stop sabotaging your own happiness if you really put your mind to it.

take care x

I'm going through very similar things. Just wanted to point out that you have all my admiration and support. x

I am in the same situation myself... I wish you all the strength and luck xx

keep fighting. you can do this!

So great that he is being so supportive honey. Keep trying. You're worth it.

As listed above, you have SO MUCH going FOR you, why be against you?

Think of it this way, you'd have better workouts if you eat. More energy. More strength.

More life.

We'll be alright.

Together we'll do it!!!!

Does he understand what is behind an ED? How addictive it can be, how it drives us? Would it be helpful if he went to therapy with you so that he could understand even on a teeny tiny level?

Good girl. Now try to add in some snacks twice in the day and then we'll chat more.

Good for you!
Stick it out.

I just miss feeling pretty. I know that's selfish and I know it's not healthy, but my mind hasn't changed. I changed my actions and I put on a smile, sure, but my brain will always see numbers, my mirror will always reflect imperfection. I don't deserve to feel this way.
I'm so conflicted. I feel like I'm losing my mind.

How could you do that to yourself? Keeping yourself alive? You did it for your little one. Think about your child. Do you want your child to grow up to be just like you? Or choose something else in the place of an ED? You MUST put your child first. Think about what you're doing to yourself as doing to him.

Keeping yourself on the brink is no more ok than going past that line hon. I'm here for you and you know that. You MUST figure out a way to fight this thing and tell it to fuck off. Not the other way around. You must win, and killing yourself is not winning.

Don't you even dare hon...that's an order!!!!!!!!!! You listen to Mother Nat...I swear!!!!

I just looked at your pics ... I was a fat girl too. You look amazing now!!

I fully understand this post. I gained a bit this winter, and I'm no longer getting the "you look like a holocaust victim" comments. I would love to lose the six pounds that I've gained ... I just don't feel as attractive when I am heavier ... I'm sure you understand.

Hugs honey...

So glad to hear it's all worked out.
Enjoy your rest, love. <3 you most definitely deserve it.

hey, you go girl.

I agree with the first two comments... WHen you're going through tough times, I mean REALLY tough times, it's important to consider your well-being and the well-being of those you love. Even if it means seperation.

I really hope that he either makes the right decision to clean up his act for a wonderful woman who loves him, or that he gives you and your son the freedom that you deserve.

This is really tough! I'm glad you have nice friends to go out with and ease your mind a little bit. Good luck in your new job.

I'm so glad you're putting yourself and your son first. You sound like you have a really good head on your shoulders and I hope everything works out for the best.
