Body image !

[Nomes]

Why when I was big did I think I looked ok and as I've been losing weight I now see me as bigger??

Because you're human!! Its frustrating I know, but at a basic level, as your loose weight you begin to gain a bit of confidence, and like it or not, you get a bit more vain (not in a bad Carly Simon way ) just more aware of your appearance, and so you become more critical of your appearance.

Mental isn't it?

Yup!! I never knew how big I was before - the shock I had at my first weigh in!

It's so weird

I was just thinking this this morning. I know I've lost weight and I feel better for it but my God everytime I look in the mirror (I'm not going to lie, I look in the mirror alot in the hope of seeing change) I see about a million different areas I'm not happy with. Agh!

Perhaps mirrors ought to be consigned to the same bin as scales!! The only time I look in a mirror is when I put my makeup on and check that my hair isn't sticking up. I don't have body image issues because I don't have a body image!
