I had one experience where I got really close online with another crossdresser and we were going to meet. In preparation and when I had some alone time I tried out my outfits and i had gained weight. It was in the winter and the heat was on and it turned into a sweaty sad night. I purged then and never met the other.

Several years later and with COVID I have gained weight again. But this time my desire to be who I want to be is very motivational to me. I am exercising, healthy and the weight is coming off. The little black dress is waiting for me.

Hugs.
