I have been for months in denial about how overweight I truly am and about my addiction to using food as coping strategy. Today I went to the doctors and they measured me and did my bmi its 29.4 I am .6 away from being obese. I gained like 5kilos in two weeks just from all the fruit juices, cakes and nikitas. To be honest I wouldn't have even asked about my bmi if it weren't for my sister telling me I was fat and had too much stomach fat and that put me at risk of diabetes. To be honest I wouldn't have noticed or cared by my eyes and standard I was only 5 kilos overweight that just shows how much my mind distorts reality. I think I may have body dysmorphia as my mind always changes how I perceive my body in some moments I am fine others I am obese other times it is normal. I am not sure if I need to see a counsellor about these beliefs and behaviours. What do you guys suggest?
