Guest guest Posted December 21, 2009 Report Share Posted December 21, 2009 I haven't had bad thoughts about my body in a long time, and I've gotten really good at being gentle with myself if I overeat or eat when I'm not hungry. I overate at a Christmas party on saturday, and last night at my parent's house, they made my two very favorite foods in the world- Dad's spaghetti and Mom's chocolate chip cookies- and I ate more than I needed and felt uncomfortable. I was so sensitive about my eating on saturday that it caused a huge fight with my husband. I felt awful for the rest of the day and my body felt so uncomfortable. Yesterday before dinner, my mom took a family picture and I hate the way I look. I'm not even overweight, I'm 5'8 " and a size 8 or a 10, but I have a very round face that's larger than my husband's, and so I look bigger than him in the picture. It's a silly thing to get worked up about. Also, last night I felt very aware of my 'muffin tops' poking over the edge of my jeans. I know I'm just rambling, but I just feel really discouraged and worried that I'll never break free from my compulsive eating and that I'll always be at war with my body. I've been doing so well, now I feel miserable and I'm not sure what to do or how to get my brain back on track. McKella Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
