I can easily go back and forth every couple minutes (especially when walking past a mirror) saying “I should just eat whatever I like, in moderation and take walks” then I see my reflection “i don’t like how chubby my face is now” then “but other heavier people are pretty, so I should think of myself that way”
These thoughts are contradicting and switch up so quickly, it’s exhausting.
I really enjoy food and am a bit of a binge eater. It’s fun and all but I usually over eat and am in pain and sluggish after a meal. I often eat so much sugary treats that I crash and have to nap after. Sometimes my waist hurts and cramps up so bad that wearing pants is impossible. I wouldn’t be able to swim in public looking how I look. I don’t feel pretty. So there’s definitely cons to my current weight.
But it’s like I’m hesitant to focus on my appearance for some reason. I think it’s because I KNOW my worth isn’t determined by how I look. I’ve been practicing that perspective for 10 years. Looking attractive just isn’t motivating for me. I truly love myself no matter how I look.
Leave your experiences and thoughts. Please be nice.
