Yesterday I went on a seven mile hike in the mountains. I like hiking, but a big reason why I did it was because I wanted to make sure I was exercising and doing some intense exercise since I can't go to the gym up here. And another thing is I restrict myself a lot from eating sweet things

Fat is a f****** social construct in terms of obesity and stuff like that. That's a real medical thing. But I guess I'm trying to say my self worth should not be indicated by a number or a gene size, and it can be so hard to differentiate those two. And like you're saying, I actually have gone to therapy for this issue before

I feel like part of the problem for me, too, is I was a little bit overweight growing up. And now that I've been able to kind of overhaul my diet and exercise and stuff. I've lost a lot of weight. And I've gone down a couple of sizes with clothes. And I think that's good to an extent. But it kind of makes it. Like. Addicting to a point where I'm like

I ended up losing a lot of weight and really finding that confidence in my body again. But I oftentimes have almost PTSD to that time when I was that weight. And it really was a hard time for me because I was at that weight. I really just didn't care about being healthy because I was just kind of in a poor me. Like, my birth control made me fat, whatever kind of mindset. And it wasn't really in like, okay, let's change this

I think that's really important, and I kind of have been trying to do that a little bit, but it's just hard trying to get your head and the way you feel to be on the same page. I've struggled with that a lot. You think something and you can think about it logically, but you can't make yourself feel that way
