I've been down this road a million times before, and when people really started noticing the weight loss I have an ex who thought I was cheating on him because I was losing weight. So I quit trying. But after breast cancer 10 years ago I did try to lose the weight and I got the same accusations. That time he was right and I did meet someone else after I'd lost the weight. So 5 years ago he became the ex and I moved on. I did put some of the weight back on after hurting my back, and when I started losing it and people noticed I still heard my ex in my head and gave up. My mom passed away a week before Christmas last year and since then I've eaten my grief away and put on quite a bit of weight. I really want to lose it and keep it off, but not really sure how to silence that voice of my ex in my head.

    You can't let your ex control hiw you feel. Obviously he didn't have your best in his interest. Become empowered and lose the weight for you. This can be a metamorphosis for you. Change those negative thoughts to positive ones....

    sounds like he didn't want you to succeed in your own personal goals... Good thing he's an ex.. but put away the guilt or validation u need from him... this is about you !! as it sounds u probably will never get the words you did want to hear from him, the power in the scenario needs to be moves back to your self.. I know its easier said than done. good luck !
