I totally feel this too. I lost a lot of weight recently and am very proud of myself for changing my eating patterns (mainly WHEN I eat) and getting more active. I have addressed eating as a pattern of self-comfort and boredom relief. I'm very proud that I have done so, and lost a significant amount of weight, which has allowed me to be more confidently addressing my relationship status issues. However, during therapy, I totally skipped over the weight loss thing BECAUSE my T is kind of fat, and *****es regularly about her "joint" problems (which of course are worsened by being fat).
I don't want to address my success for fear of hurting my Ts feelings.
How pathetic is that?
