I am struggling. I can not accept any kind of weight gain. I just can't wrap my head around it no matter how much I try. I end up hating myself and I am filled with regret for facing fear foods or eating all my calories.

    I never thought that I could stop weighing myself, but now I never want to weigh myself again. I started to focus on lifting heavier at the gym. I have been focusing on the fact that muscle mass weighs more than fat. therefore I do not want to know how much I weigh, because I know that my muscle mass has increased. my favorite pants do fit, so I am comforted knowing that whatever I have gained is not enough to go shopping for big girl clothes.
