Back to Episodes234: The Dark Side of Weight Loss and Dating
Description
I lost 40 pounds, got the body I always wanted, was single, and started getting attention from men for the first time in my life. And I absolutely hated it. It took me 20 years of dating, getting married, divorced, and gaining the weight back to understand why.
This is a story about dating after weight loss, but it really isn’t. It’s about the dragons that many women need to fight along the way. If you’re fighting some of those battles, too, keep listening. This episode is for you.
Together, we will investigate:
- Why losing weight and getting the body I always wanted actually made my self-esteem worse.
- The bizarre contradiction of wanting male attention, then resenting it when I got it
- The “pick-me” girl trap I couldn’t see until it was too late.
