No clue if anyone will ever read this and if no one does then this is just for myself to let it all out and put it out there. I’m not a very soft and sentimental person (only sometimes! LOL) But lately I’ve been feeling sad and I told myself this year I’m not just going to hold it in anymore because it’s unhealthy. Put it out there and take advice from others. I’m always helping and hyping up others but I want to take some time to help myself now. There’s a lot of positives going on in my life, but a positive has lead to a negative and that one negative has lead to all sorts of other negatives. I lost 100 lbs last year! Woo hoo! Started at 280 lbs, and am now down to 175 lbs! Which sounds great! But this has lead to a disorder called Phantom Fat which I didn’t even know what this was until I researched about it. Phantom fat comes after excessive weight loss from someone and even though they are now at a normal or better weight, they have still kept the same insecurities from before they lost the weight. I look at myself in reflections all the time, in the mirror all the time, afraid to take pictures of myself because I still look at myself and call myself fat and ugly. Which may or may not be true. I have come to Reddit because paying for a therapist isn’t an option and often times my friends and family will just say “get over it and suck it up” and as I probably should, I’m still looking for some support and advice to get past this! As this insecurity has had me feeling sad and down about myself and my self-esteem is very low which as I said earlier has lead to other negatives. Thanks!
