Have searched for a while to see if a question similar to mine has been asked anywhere and ive found none, so here I am writing this.
I am technically not overweight, but i count calories because i would still like to lower my weight a bit to trim up and also control my portions because even if I wasnt looking to lose any weight its still very easy for me to gain if I'm not tracking and seeing how much I've eaten.
I'm afraid to tell boyfriend I count calories but its only a matter of time before it becomes more obvious. He knows that I have always had issues around food and my body image and always reassures me that I look fine, that even if I gained weight id still be hot, and that eating is important and healthy. I know he is genuine when he says that he'll always see me as beautiful and he truly is the best. Which is why i dont want him to begin to look at me like I'm a difficult, vain, pathological person for counting all my calories and not being spontaneous about cheese platters and etc., because he'll think i care more about numbers than how he sees me. I have never met anyone besides myself who counts calories and im sure he probably hasn't either which further makes me feel as though he will take this as strange, sterile behavior.
Please tell me your stories about telling S/O's and family/friends about this, and encouragement for me, and ideas of casual ways to mention it. Thank you so much for reading! :)
