My insecurities

So I’m watching the football game with my husband and his friends who are bodybuilders and former Mr. Michigans. They’re all winners of the title.

I’m really fat right now. I’m 80 pounds (36.28 kg) overweight right now. I’m so ashamed of myself. I feel humiliated by my appearance. I keep catching the men looking at my stomach (it’s round).

I don’t feel worthy of the company I’m in. I’m not feeling very good about myself right now. I wish my worth came from my inner self more than my outer self, but as Americans, I know that’s not the case. :frowning:

I bet they’re not really looking at your stomach. I’m sure you look nice. I’m sorry you’re not feeling good about yourself right now, but I think that you should.

I have a normal BMI and I always criticize myself. 2 1/2 years ago I was my high school weight, which was really skinny. I can criticize myself in photos in a bikini at that weight. We’re always our own worst critic.

It naturally feels that way when being with fit people. Maybe there are still something good in the soul that will overcome the body related issues. Just need to find that and be peace with it.

@HollyHobbie , yes, even thin people can be insecure. You’re right.

@Melomaniac yeah, I imagine most people would feel “less than” around these guys

I had six packs in college people used to make fun of me saying you look like a daily wage worker.

Then when put on weight they say i am fat, and when I lost weight they say you have become weak.

People and their thought I say screw them. Live a life you like to.

People plus the voices make the perfect cocktail for success. :roll_eyes:
