Interesting... hm...
 
Have you ever experienced this??

So I have been weight-obsessed forEVER. And off and on I go through phases where I try to not care. But, rarely do I ever "not care".

Well, today, I set some specific goals for myself including my menu and exercise. I've met all my goals and I really didn't think about my weight at all today! What the heck?! I just followed through and you know what, tonight just sitting here- I DO NOT CARE that I'm overweight. I feel healthy. I feel strong, and I feel happy. So... I don't really know WHAT I'm experiencing, but it is weird. hahaha :dizzy:

That hasn't happened to me. Unfortunately. I, too, have been weight obsessed forever, and it's still going strong. Every thought every second of every day. Growl.

I thought I was the only one who thinks about weight 24/7. I thought I really had a problem but I guess it is more common. Sometimes I dream and wake up and think my actual fat life was just a dream and run to the mirror and realize it's real.


Carcar05: Must be a great feeling not thinking of weight. Actually that is an amazing progress. I have been addicted to my addiction that I could not imagine not even thinking about weight post-goal. It is inconceivable. But that actually will be another goal of mine to enjoy my moment(s) and move forward to put my energy in another goal. Kudos to you.

I guess it depends on the day for me. Like Some days I feel really good about myself, and then other days, not so much.

Although I think im attractive, so I try not to let what issues I have with me body affect that. And I don't really try to weigh myself all the time. i just go by how I feel and how my clothes fit me.

I can relate, on the days where I work out and do excellent with my eating it seems like I'm satisfied just knowing I'm doing a good job for myself and that makes me feel good, I feel content.

Dymondndruff, I must say that I absolutely love your avatar! Hilarious!

I am starting to learn the balance between obsessed and watching what I eat. I know I am still a little obsessed because I have a huge flight coming up forcing me to skip exercising and eat in airports all day. It's taken me about 11 years!
