marriage trouble and eating

[4MyFamily]

my husband and I are going through a very tricky time right now with our marriage. I am also taking Wegovy for weightloss. So between the anxiety from my marriage problems and the medication I barely eat. This is bringing me back to high school when I had an ED. I know I NEED to eat for health and nutrition but I cannot stand the sight of food sometimes. I’ve gone days without eating and only realize because I get a headache. I’m just frustrated because I need to lose weight for my health and heart but I didn’t want it to be like this

No, you don't want to lose weight like this. In forgetting to eat or not wanting to puts

your body into starvation mode. Our brain actually sends out signals to the body that

it is hungry. Headaches may be the first sign of the body wanting nourishment. When

not satisfied, the electrolytes go out of whack affecting emotional and physical feelings.

My daughter is anorexic and I see her body crying out for help. She has relationship

problems as well. As a mother, I want to save her but I can't.

With all you are going through, I hope you start taking care of yourself in getting the

help you need to make it through this difficulty in life. My best to you 4MyFamily xx

I feel your anxiety. It is very challenging going through experiences like this. It is of no help for your healing if you have marriage problems on top of this too. But you have to find a way to get through this> I did. So you must have that you can think of that is enough for you to find the extra motivation to eat and to live for, If your marriage Is struggling then I have to say that you partner is either not a good support partner or for some reason cant find it within himself to car for your life. But I know you can and do have reasons for living.

So fight, fight, fight your way though this. Find something to fight for and continue to fight everyday. There is no good outcome by giving up. And if you marriage continues to deteriorate then so be it. You life is much more important that an uncooperative spouce.

Good luck to you
