I have this theory about the hyperfocus on weight and body image...I think it plays a part for MOST people...but for many many of us...it's only part. The bigger issue -- is MUCH bigger. But guess what? When I am super focused on my body issues and weight and numbers, I can't think about the other stuff. It's a distraction (not a conscious distraction), but a VeRY EFFECTIVE distraction from the issues.
