I (20M 5'6 170lbs) am just about overweight. It's distributed well around my body so most people object when I say that I'm overweight, even my nan who's not known for her tact, but I know that I'm overweight. I've been struggling with my weight and eating disorders my whole life and a common theme, as I'm sure most people here can empathise with, is that when I gain weight or 'feel fat' I feel like I have no worth. I have a job interview in a week in the field I worked in for a year and a half, so I'm fairly confident about my abilities, even though I have only had one interview before.
But my confidence and self image are so poor, I'm worried about ruining it for myself by hating how I look on the day. Being overweight makes me feel like I come across unprofessional and as if I don't have control: if I can't discipline myself when it comes to food, why would I be able to in this job?
I just don't know what to do about it. My 3am brain is saying this is the kick I need to start healthy eating again, but I'm deep in a depression currently and I know the chances of me actually doing it are low. Any advice?
