How do you get out of your own head? Feeling shame and uncomfortable in my own body
Supert short backstory: Went from 85kgs to 65kgs over the course of 1 1/2 year.
My mental health was very bad at 65kgs, and I don't strive to reach that weight again. I do, however, want to reach under 70kgs at least.
Right now, I'm at 74.6kgs, and I can't seem to loose the weight. I know I have to eat less, but I just struggle so much with it. I think about food constantly. Always feeling ashamed if I eat too much, but at the same time try to eat enough and don't go into the extreme.
I work out around 3 days a weak, but it's mostly strength, and I don't burn very many calories. I would like to build more muscle, so I don't want my calorie deficit to be huge.
I've reached a point where I'm constantly feeling uncomfortable in my own body, and no matter what I wear, I feel fat. I even felt like my new Doc Martens were making me look fat. Frickin shoes?!
I'm a student and my time schedule jumps around a lot, so getting in good rutines for food is super hard. Suddenly I don't make it home for dinner and the only food available is pizza. But then I eat one slice and stresses over how much that one piece of pizza weights and the calories I've eaten. I don't know how many times I've googled "pizza slice from x company weight".
So my question is - how do you get out of your own head?
I truly believe that if I can get out of my head and stop feeling constant shame and being uncomfortable with myself - it will be easier to maintain a healthy diet. I think the shame leads to a lot of emotional eating.
Feeling really frustrated and tired of feeling this way all the time. I miss feeling like I could wear anything and shopping for new clothes without feeling disgusted of the person in the mirror. The lightning in fitting rooms really isn't flattering.. Honestly, just writing this makes me want to cry.
