Click Here For The Best Way To Lose 10 Pounds
BDD is an anxiety disorder that is related to body image and there are many silent sufferers out there. I have never talked about this before, and it was very hard to make this video because yes I try to focus on the good things, the things I love about myself, I do everything I can to make myself feel good BUT it is very challenging, I think especially when I am in a position (that I have put myself in) where I get comments about my body hundreds of times a day, how I look, what I say, etc and I think I handle it very well mentally but it does take its toll overtime.
Everyone who has a distorted body image experiences varying degrees of it. If you have gone through this please do not undermine my experience because yours was simply different, we all suffer in some way.
Some people who have lost a lot of weight have trouble embracing their new, slimmer shapes. Throughout my weight loss journey its been very hard for me to see ANY changes. People always told me I looked great or they could see so many differences but to me I still felt like I looked the same.
Of course this has gotten better as time went on, as I learned to love myself and not focus so much on the weight on the scale or the "progress" being made but for me, I think any type of me trying to improve my body shape, makes the problem worse.
This phenomenon is sometimes called “phantom fat” or “phantom fat syndrome.” The medical term is body dysmorphic disorder.
I think for me, sharing my weight loss journey online, doing body updates, trying new things to get leaner and fitter and the approval or disapproval that comes with that has really taken a toll on my mental health.
From here on out I think it is best for me, to live a healthy balanced life and not try to "improve" my body anymore because I have found it to lead down a path that I dont want to take.
I know that accepting myself the way I am and focusing on self love for what I look like NOW is what I need. I dont know the answers to all of this. This video is just to share my experience and get really fucking honest with myself about what I have been dealing with and how to fix it before it gets worse.
And hopefully it can help anyone else out there Xxo
