I almost always feel fat in the evenings. Or when I wear clothes that don't flatter me. When I wear clothes that look bad on me or are too tight.. my self esteem goes through the floor.
yeah. i think this is a valid point. I am wearing just an old baggy t-shirt today, and i came back to work with wet hair after the gym (i'm just a grad student, and i work in a basement, so it really doesn't matter at all how i look ), but i think that is causing my mood to be worse.
Everyone has fat days, just like some days you'll wake up and look in the mirror and look adorable, and other days you'll think you look like a monster. I don't think there's really too much you can do about it, other than just sticking with your plan so that hopefully you'll have fewer fat days in your future!
Funny I should run into this post today, because I am feeling SO SO fat today! I don't know what it is, because I am dressed as usual...maybe it's because weigh-in day is tomorrow....I don't know!
well, the good news is, fat day is nearly over. I just got back from my second trip to the gym for the day (the first trip didn't help much, so i thought round two might make me feel less fat...) and I'm feeling less fat already. Yay! Now it's time for one more "stick to the plan" dinner, and then i'm off to bed to put this horribly fat day behind me. best of luck to us all tomorrow!
I've lost 65 pounds and feeling really fat lately. I also think I denied it before. Let's face it, I am fat, and that's depressing after a 65 pound loss. I'm trying to focus on the fact that I'm healthier and feeling better.
I have days where I can't stand to be in my own skin... I can feel all the flab hanging over my jeans and my stomach just being all blegh and unsupported and I just wanna go for a 50 mile run! Normally it's when I can't actually do anything about it, like when I'm in town or at school, so I can't concentrate on what I should be doing! Arrrgh!
yeah, i know what you mean, totally. it took me two trips to the gym yesterday to remind myself that, even though I may feel fat, I am losing weight. I'm getting skinnier by the day! i kept reminding myself that i'd been sticking to my diet really well, and i hadn't missed a day at the gym yet, and that i can wear clothes that i hadn't been able to wear in a while... it didn't go away entirely, but my logic finally overcame my emotions yesterday. Thanks for all of your help and support!

lol, I hear ya on that one! I feel much better too so it's easy to keep going but sometimes, I'm like...come on!! I lost 60 pounds! I should be thin already! lol
Hang in there girlies!
I used to have fat days when I weighed 140...so I think it's normal I should have them now even with a 60 pound loss!
Way to go on tackling that fat day to the ground aerotiger! You showed it who was really in control!
