My husband left me two years ago for a younger woman. I'm 47 and feel old and frumpy. I'm now ready to pick myself up and change my ways. What advice can you offer?
That's great that you're ready to get going again - well done, it's certainly not easy.
My biggest advice is to love yourself, if you don't already. Start with positive talk. Tell yourself you're great, and you're this and that. No negative talk or thoughts.
Be kind to yourself. Treat and reward yourself. Indulge when you can. Do things that make you happy, and do them often. If you're happy within yourself, it will shine through and others will see it.
Smile - this makes you instantly more attractive.
