It sounds like you've made eating a habit to relieve the boredom of the desk job. It won't be that hard to find something else (exercises for the weakest parts of your body perhaps) to occupy your time if you put your mind to it. (or switch to a food that's very low in calories for snacking on the job). Find a new activity you've never tried before for after work or weekends, even if you don't think you'll enjoy it at first it might grow on you. Who knows? It may lead to the meeting of wife number 3.

I would be finding me a new shrink. Your almost to retirement age. Hang in there no matter your age everyone feels like this at some point in their life and sometimes more than once. You need to get a hobby you enjoy then maybe youll meet someone to enjoy it with. Also you dont have to get married if you find this someone. Good Luck and remember you control your destiny you can make things happen.

Definitely see another psychiatrist, this one is incompetent. Find one to prescribe some medications to help you through this trying time. I can feel your pain. Remember though, it is only temporary. I've seen some nice looking men your age and men carry weight better than women.
Don't make a permanent decision for a temporary problem. Read the bible, go to church, call some old friends. You have to keep trying, get yourself out there and noticed.
Good luck.
