Hi,
Over the past year and a half, I've lost about 85 pounds. The catalyst was some digestive problems which despite having my gallbladder removed have not completely resolved, despite following a very careful, "clean" (nutritionist-approved) diet.
I've reached my weight goal and it seems like I should be feeling great and confident and attractive, but I do not. I have a lot of loose skin and feel that I look older. I look slim with my clothes on, and I've gained more energy and a certain degree of improved health (and have learned much better eating habits), but after an entire lifetime spent thinking that I would be a better, happier, sexier and fantastically healthy person if I lost weight and cleaned up my diet, I'm having trouble getting over the disappointment of finding out that things are very much the same.
Anyone else struggle with this? Tell me it's a phase!
How did you get out of it?
