Like the title says, about a month ago I went through the most painful breakup out of many different relationships including a past marriage with a kid. I don’t feel that my weight had anything to do with it as my partner struggled as well. However one of her exes and longest relationship was in the military and in incredible shape which always made me feel self conscious. However we had a great relationship and she claimed she realized she was a dismissive avoidant and I did nothing wrong. Well this leads to the weight loss.
I’m also bipolar but I haven’t had many lows, especially when I was in a happy and healthy relationship. However when it abruptly ended the depression hit hard and I basically stopped eating. I’d have a couple of protein shakes a day and maybe some jerky and on two occasions during the past month I did order a lot of fast food but given how little I was eating on other days it made no difference.
I’ve been trying to convince myself that others do water fasts all the time and I saw it as that. But after sharing the results with my sister she got concerned it was too fast. Also to note almost two months ago I stopped drinking. However like the fast food I had two bad nights but I like to think going from daily drinking to having drinks two nights out of about 60 helped with the weight loss. But 23 lbs in one month feels extreme.
Has anyone else experienced this? I really do want to eat more and feel like I should but again, I feel fine. Also I seriously can’t force myself to get up and cook or even go buy proper meals. I just stocked up on premier proteins which is all I can eat or drink rather. I see a therapist regularly who’s been helping with all the other aspects but I haven’t brought up the weight loss and lack of appetite yet but plan to on Monday.
I don’t have anyone else to turn to right now and could really use some help, encouragement or hard truths.
