Not Every Story Has a Happy Ending : Kristina

by Kristina
(U.S.A.)

My parents got divorced 9 months after I was born . My dad left me my borther and my mom alone with no money or home ,so we stayed at my aunts.

After 8 years he only came to 1 of my birthdays and I have not seen him since and I am almost 13 now

My dad has hated me all my life and it is all my fault that they got divorced I guess. Because I had gotten sick visiting family and so we stayed longer than we thought and that was also when he started to cheat on my mom.

After my mom had told me the story I thought it was all my fault and I did not know how to let the hurt out that I felt and I began to eat my feelings out and got obese and I hid my feelings so at school I would get bullied for being the only one with no father and being obese .

Today I am almost 13,
-I have 2 brothers
-I am still obese and
-I still think it is all my fault that my parents got divorced and so
-I hate my father and I told my family my mom’s side understands but my dad’s side hates me
.......so that is my story for now.

Dear Kristina,

I just watched this video which might help you. If you do not understand it, ask your mother or a friend to explain and what you need to do.

starstarstarstarstar		 The divorce of your parents is not your fault
by: Emmily

Dear Kristina,

You made a great contribution by sharing your story with us.

First of all, the divorce of your parents is not your fault. They are both adults and they make their own decisions. However, sadly enough, you have to face the consequences.

What did you do to lose weight? Do your mom and brothers support you? I from my own experience that it is very hard to lose weight and then stay lean. So many of us bounce back after having lost many pounds.

What I did was banning sugar and all products with added sugar or sugar replacements in it. The first week it was difficult, but after that I got used to it. Today I find most food with sugar too sweet. I do eat pure chocolate (72% or more cacao) every now and then. That's even healthy and it does not add weight again.

I just do not buy and hence does not have sweet products or other bad stuff like chips in my house, so there is nothing that can seduce me in a weak moment.

I wish you all the best,

Emmily.
