Ever have one of those days where you’re feeling like a total goddess, and the next, you’re thinking, “Ugh, I look like a potato”? Trust me, it’s not just you. It’s practically impossible for your body to change that drastically in such a short time. So how do you handle these wild mood swings without tossing in the towel?
Here are three questions to help you get to the bottom of it:
1. Can You Name What You’re Really Feeling?
First things first: “I feel fat” isn’t actually an emotion. It’s more of a vague thought that could be hiding something deeper. Are you actually feeling anxious, stressed, or overwhelmed? Just putting a label on what you’re feeling can make it easier to manage and move through.
2. What Else is Going On in Your Life Right Now?
Your body image can be a bit like a mood ring – it often reflects what’s happening in your life. Are you juggling a lot of stress, dealing with major changes, or just having an off day? Connecting these dots can boost your self-awareness and help you realise that it’s not all about your body.
3. What Does This Change in Your Body Image Mean for You?
Here’s the deal: it’s super common to tie your body image to your self-worth. But the real issue might not be the actual change in body fat; it’s what you’re telling yourself about it. Are you thinking things like “I’m a failure” or “I’m not enough”? Instead, consider how you can address these feelings in other areas of your life.
