I was broken up with a couple of weeks ago - been brutal, but I have re-found my interest in the gym. My goal is weight loss, although any added bonus and strength is a net positive. The problem is, post breakup, I haven't been eating much. It's very slowly coming back, but I'm wondering if this is either helping me drop weight by staying in a caloric defecit OR if it's causing my body to panic and hold on to the fat.

To be clear - I am eating, just about half of what I used to (~1000-1100 calories).

TLDR - lost my appetite and am trying to lose weight. Is this a bad plan?

My ex [spoiler], broke up with me 2 weeks ago. The same day he texted me i love you and i genuinely thought he was ''the one''. The breakup was incredibly emotional, but he said a few things that hit at the very core of my insecurities. It wasn't nice, although I firmly believe he didn't mean it...

Long story short, we haven't spoken in two weeks. Before that we texted every day for since late 2024. He was my best friendly, someone I thought was my future.

TBH, there isn't an hour that passes that I dont think about something I'd like to tell him about or that I miss him. Transparently, I'm getting the support I need to address my own issues - but what genuinely is haunting me is that he doesn't seem to want to talk to me. I know he's rather resolute... but what does it mean that I am having such a hard time and he doesnt seem to be bothered.

TLDR - why is he finding no contact so easy while I want to update him throughout the day?
