Default 30 years of weighing myself every day....it can't be fixed in 2 weeks!

I have been on a bit of a roller coaster of emotion. I see that I have a serious problem with my body image, even now after all the weight loss. I suspect that if I don't deal with this body dismorphia now, I don't care how thin I get, I will not be satisfied.

When I am upset, the person in the mirror is fat and unacceptable, but when I am feeling good about me or my life, I look thinner. WHAT???? It is not reality, it is emotional projection, a distorted perception! Wow, what an interesting development and all because of my scale being in the closet.

That means I get to grow as a person YET AGAIN. Another bleedin' learning experience! (can you hear the sarcasm over the monitor???) hehehehe

Rome was not built in a day, and it took even longer to pull it apart.
