TW: mention of ED
Hi friends. I'm a cis woman, 5'5", 215 at my heaviest.
So in 2017 I started using the gym at work and lost about 60 pounds over a year and a half (down to 155).
In 2019, I had an ED relapse and gained back 15 pounds, and in 2020 I started working from home due to the pandemic, lost access to my gym, and returned to about 180.
HOWEVER - looking at myself in the mirror, I never saw any difference. I noticed that my clothes didn't fit right anymore and that it was getting harder to run.
But this past weekend, for whatever reason, I looked in the mirror and I saw it - myself at 180 pounds again.
For months I have been seeing myself as my more-or-less 160-pound self. I didn't notice myself adding on the pounds.
NOW - I understand why I am heavier and I am trying to be kind with myself for it. But I was wondering if anyone else has experienced this - seeing themselves at a different weight and having it all catch up to them with one glance?
