Post Body

I experience weight fluctuations, for reference. Iā€™d experienced a random gain last year and was slowly trying to tone up and whatnot. But because I kept getting sick, I couldnā€™t work out a lot.

I had a semi-regular worth a few hundred for a while. When I gained weight weā€™d still dance a bit, but then out of nowhere he wasnā€™t as interested. Thatā€™s fine, no problem at all.

The last time I worked, he was there. He wanted a few dances and as Iā€™m dancing he points out that I lost ā€œlike a LOT of weightā€ and tells me I look good now . I immediately felt gross. Iā€™ve been getting comments from more than just customersā€” random people in my personal life notice it.

I didnā€™t lose a ton of weight on purpose. After my love passed, I couldnā€™t hold down more than a handful of dry cheerios for two weeks. My appetite has changed, my body is weaker.

The grief hit like a ton of bricks after that. I donā€™t really look like myself anymore. Iā€™m used to comments on my body but every time someone tells me how much Iā€™ve lost I want to scream. We get it. Iā€™m smaller again, woohoo or whatever

Oh my god yes you get it. I was literally like 120-130 pounds or so (5ā€™2) and honestly looked fine! I had a little extra chub (which is more than okay) on my lower tummy and hips, but muscle from dancing too.

It sucks so bad. I know theyā€™re meaning it as a compliment because they think it was intentional or that Iā€™m working out. But Iā€™m not. Iā€™m a lot weaker than I was before. Iā€™m just like guys Iā€™m not actually any ā€œhealthierā€ just because I got smaller. A lot of people think theyā€™re kind ofā€¦ congratulating me ? Like. This isnā€™t a good thing lol.

For some reason it makes me feel even more disconnected from my boyfriend, too. Not sure why.

Yeah I think thatā€™s why theyā€™re saying it to me. Iā€™ve always had kind of an hourglass / pear shape.

I do manage to eat, but itā€™s definitely not as easy. Iā€™m only a little over two months in. And thank you. The thought counts, so thank you.

Thank you, yeah. No I donā€™t mind if Iā€™m not everyoneā€™s cup of tea. Iā€™ve been dancing long enough to be fine with that. I just didnā€™t expect him to comment on how much I lost. Luckily I donā€™t have many people in my personal life at all in general, so itā€™s not too many people making comments there.

And I yeah, do those thingsā€” I actually do eat a bit, I try to eat healthier but it also isnā€™t always an option. My physical health sometimes leaves me stuck in bed for a couple days, even before he died. Iā€™ve been meal prepping wraps and such to keep some sort of food in me. Thank you for the ideas and the time you took to comment though. The thoughts matter šŸ’•
