I still am in denial - there is no way I can be obese - yes I am bigger than everyone else - but Obese? Can not be!
I have always been able to shop at regular stores, and for my weight, esp for hte past 8 years have always been able to find 14/16s that fit - even an occasional 12 - but are cuts getting bigger - I deny it of coures! (though I think they are)
I blame my big bones, muscles that seem to expand even when they arent' terribly strong, and my big breasts for sucking up the majority of my weight - people never guess my weight, I tell myself - I do not look almost 190 - perhaps 170 or 160 even, but am I kidding myself? I am not sure.
I am caught in a bubble where I believe I am huge by myself, but when I compare myself to others, I tell myself good things - but I am still left depressed by it at the end of the day. I realize it is somethign I have to think less and less about - becuase I know when (and often) when I obsess about it, I become worse, and do not do anything about it - becuase I am so caught up in self denial and depression that I just sit. It wears me down.
Obesity I don't want to be, even when my BMI says it, I can not believe it. Overweight, yes I can admit to that - but Obesity - it is such an ugly word - my mother is Obese - I am not - I am not like my mother.
And there you have it - the ugly word shoved in my face, one almost wants to become anoerexic - but one doesn't need another problem
Plus - there is no way I could ever not eat!
must go running tonight!
