A woman claims her boyfriend was happier when she was sad and overweight- having put on a few pounds during depression after the death of her father.
The woman wrote to columnist and trained counsellor Fiona Caine to seek advice.
She said: "When I met my boyfriend two years ago, I wasn’t in a good place. I’d not long lost my dad and was very sad and depressed, and took to comfort eating in a big way. Then I met my boyfriend, who was really kind and supportive – so over the past two years, I’ve lost almost three stone in weight. It’s been a struggle at times but I feel so much better. I have lots more energy and feel more confident. I’ve got my spark back and all my friends (when they see me) are delighted for me and tell me I’m more like my old self.
