it's only been a few days since I realized and physically noticed that I have gained weight and ever since then I can't ignore how much I hate these changes, I can't stop noticing how huge my thighs have gotten and how my stomach now is too round and soft. it makes it really hard to approach this journey with a healthy mindset and doing this out of self-love. apparently I have "only" gained 3kg but they are so extremely visible that I feel very insecure about myself. I'm not sure how to cope with that, especially as I'm going back to school on monday and I feel really bad about myself.

    I suggest you find some self-esteem quotes (google, and search images), print them and tape them to your bathroom mirror where you have to look at them multiple times a day. Read them out loud. Your brain will start to internalize them even if your heart doesn't right away - try it. Here's one for starters -

    "My body is my home, and I will not tear it down."
