What is wrong with my new attitude
Although few admit it, I think everyone goes through this mental process in varying degrees. I personally didn't realize I was as big as I was when I started so as I was losing, I'd have to ask a few trusted confidantes if I was as big as X.....
To this day I still scan a room to see where I fit into the body size picture. I don't know why, I just do it. What I try very hard to never do is to be judgemental....I do not know each person's story, and I cannot control their life choices. I have to remember that each person's choices are their own and are NONE OF MY BUSINESS.
I speak very candidly and openly IF I'M ASKED about my surgery/lifestyle changes. But if I'm not asked, I rarely bring it up.
I'd say as long as you aren't being Ms. Haughty Pants then you've got nothing to worry about
I hate to admit I do this too. I don't think less of people when I look at them it is shame towards myself and where I was. I don't know about you guys but I still feel like that girl I was 120lbs ago. I know I have lost weight, the scale number is lower and all but I still feel the same inside if that makes sense. I feel like part of it is also fear of becoming the size I was again, so I dont mean to look down on other people but unfortunately sometimes I do.
I did it to early out. Not judging others, trying to figure out who I compared to size wise. I don't think it's anything to be ashamed of.....it's not like you are making fun of them in any way but coming to grips of the changes you have/are facing.
