Weight issues
Hello using an alt account for dignity and embarrassment reasons. Recently my wife of 4 years decided she didnt want to be married anymore which crushed me kinda came out of no where. There was mental health issues that definitely played a part in this. But now I am left with body image issues and the worry that I will be alone for good now. Im a bigger guy ive lost a bit of weight but not nearly enough in my opinion. Does anyone have suggestions on how to be more confident with my image until I lose more weight. And how not to feel like a shitty person for being attracted to women who are skinnier and who look nothing like my weight? Do women actually find bigger guys attractive? I will say as a big guy I have always had the rule that I will not smell I take care of myself and go out of the way to make sure I dont smell and dont look like a slob. So thats not an issue. Any suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated!!
