[QUOTE="Star*, post: 240624, member: 4964"] Bran, I'm sorry you are hurting. Weight issues are very sensitive issues in our house as we both used to be thin and both got sick and gained a lot. Keep talking to your therapist. I will add this -Would you have been happier if your husband had never told you how he feels? Would it have been better for him to keep his thoughts to himself and just stew and live a lie? Not really - it took a lot of courage to say "I love you enough to worry about you - here is what I need you to do." So I still see a lot of love there, I wouldn't toss him to the curb yet. I'd meet with the therapist again to see if you can work on things WITH him and believe me there are a LOT of men out there that do love weighty women. Problem is - you have to really love who you are and be at peace with yourself before you attract them. You may have to just do that on your own with or without him. Would be better if it was with him - but in the mean time while you're working on your weight issue? Work on your self esteem issues - living with a difficult child can wear that off of you as a Mom and start wearing away at you as a person. I know - been there done that. Hugs Star [/QUOTE]
