Afraid

Journaling:

Right now my biggest fear is gaining back all of the weight that I have lost. It has been over a year & I have lost approx. 80 lbs. I am obsessed with weighing myself. I wake up in the morning with knots in my stomach because I might of gained a pound. When I look in the mirror I still see the person in the before photo. I really need to love myself and just be proud of who I am now and not focus on who I was then. I have gone down 10 pant sizes, I can see my collar bones now. So why can’t I just be happy with myself? Why am I so afraid?

Awesome page. Wow, you look great. I'm sure a pound or two wouldn't hurt you one bit. You've done an amazing job losing that much weight. Be happy for yourself.

A great page with honesty and bravery. You are still changing on the inside to match your outside and that is okay. One usually comes before the other...

I think this is a common fear among those who have lost weight. I, too, look in the mirror and see the same person I was before I lost the weight. You can be very proud of your accomplishment and rejoice in conquering the past. The key is to find the balance between being watchful and being obsesses. Beautiful clustering and a great layout.

Congrats! It is very common to see yourself the same. Be patient with yourself. Eventually you will get used to seeing yourself thin. I loved your LO and your honesty, and I can completely understand after losing 100 lbs. You are AMAZING. Your scale is a guide not a God. Try not to give it too much power! You are AWESOME!!!

Congrats on the weight loss. I too have the same fear about regaining the weight I lost (the same as all of the other times when I regained everything I had struggled to loose, and then regained). You are beautiful and so it the LO you created. Good luck.
