Body Image
Are pictures and videos the best representation of how others see you? I had to take a video and I just got so sad looking at how my body is. I think most the time I’m generally okay with who I am. I’ve gained a lot of pandemic weight. I’ve had my dad who I haven’t seen in a long time questioning my weight gain the last 2x I saw him in the more recent months. Idk, I don’t have an answer as to “why” I gained weight. It just happened. Anyways I’ve become more self conscious and it’s hard to not let my insecurities get to me or even affect other relationships. For example, if you’re out with people and you feel hungry but others who happen to be slimmer, say they’re not. You get afraid to say you’re hungry the next time or be afraid eat around them. I know they don’t judge me, but I just feel scared. So then it makes me not want to reach out to anyone. It makes me not want to visit my dad in fear he’ll comment on my weight again. Sometimes I get anxiety running into people who previously knew the skinnier me. I avoid a lot of places and wear larger clothing. It sucks! I’m trying to be more conscious about my dietary habits, but I know the journey will take time. & when I do good with being active and watching my calories and step on the scale I get so discouraged.
