Bad body image day

Today has been just a rotten day body image wise. I tried on some clothes at Target and they just didn't look right. That was the first time I've seen my body in a full length mirror for quite a while and it's a bit upsetting I guess? Just shocking to see my body changed. I felt like all day my jeans were sitting on me funny, I felt like my stomach was sticking out… just uncomfortable. But I came home and got into comfortable clothes and now I feel much better. A few months ago I bought a full length mirror and my therapists took it away from me. I wonder how I'd do with a mirror now. It would take some getting used to, but I want to know my body. Today was just uncomfortable. But I'm ok now.

And the thing that's great is… I didn't let my poor body image affect what I was eating. I had lunch at chipotle, which is delicious… I had a rice bowl! First time I haven't ordered a salad. Rice, black beans, sofritas (tofu), lettuce, salsa, corn salsa… really yummy! And I ate the whole thing and felt good :) I was satisfied, and that's how it should be. Not hungry, satisfied.

My dad and I spent the day together which was really nice… errands, lunch, and then went to see a movie.. Annie! and it was super cute movie. Really cheery and uplifting. The actors were good and the whole experience was just positive. I recommend it if you're looking for a sweet, uplifting movie.

Hope you all had a nice Saturday!
