My gut, my double chin in pictures, and my touching thighs. I also have bad teeth and uneven eyebrows but cant afford braces again ( had them once, and never was taken for follow ups by parents or given a retainer and they've shifted back to crooked)

    Hoping weight loss gives me a feel-good mental boost.

    What I truly hate most is my lack of will-power and self-control. These are causal factors for my life long weight battle.

    I've run five full marathons but I've never given it my best effort because I've been at least 40+ pounds overweight for every single one of them. :/

    Pain and exhaustion . I hate that my body has been falling apart since I was a teenager, and I'm sick of being sick. Personally I don't love my appearance, but I learned to accept it years ago, and I don't hate how I look (except for an occasional dismorphia spell where I suddenly turn into an ugly hag for a few weeks, but that seems to be a depression/ chemical thing and hasn't happened since I started meds that work, lol).

    I just take up too much space. My husband had to drive home the other day because someone had parked too close to the driver's side door. I sometimes knock things off of tables with my butt. I want both armrests on the plane.

    Well that and I am hoping to get some people back once I get my sugars under control.

    How attractive-for all the wrong reasons-I am. People (usually those on my care team) love playing with my huge gut, intimate parts and bottom without knowing/caring about my very strict boundaries (and I dare not tell them because I am a legal dependent due to disability).

    As someone who works in the industry this is appalling! You have EVERY right to tell them that is not ok! It is your body, your choices as to who touches you and where/why!!! What a complete lack of respect- goes against everything industry standards stand for! Perhaps you could send an email to the care team manager?

    I am 100% tired and unmotivated 100% of the time. With diet and exercise I hope to be 90% tired and unmotivated 90% of the time and a real tiger 10% of the time.

    I’ve tried a similar strategy-verbal tattling-and gotten in huge trouble because my group is my parents, the rare nurse, a nurse practitioner and a friend who I would trust with my life (she, let the record show, is innocent except for the odd accidental chest bump/punch in the rhymes-with-Regina). It’s poor Dad who enjoys slathering alcohol on open wounds without asking first and other...unique behaviors. After a good talking-to about why love-patting my tail is actually a highly vile act of hatred (wound/trauma stuff) that has stopped (though poor Mom once forgot and promptly understood why I cringed and buried myself with my bedsheets). By and large, I am safe, but shedding 50 pounds would absolutely make me safer.

    I simply don't hate myself or any of my healthy fully functional body parts

    I am so sorry you feel this way. You think they wouldn’t care about your feelings?
    You are legally dependent on those who care for, and play with, you?

    Precisely. Leaving home at 18 did not and will not happen due to health needs.

    :(
    Do you think they know it bothers you? Are they doing it affectionately or in a way that violates serious personal boundaries?


    No one should ever be violated in this way. If you want to talk more please send me a message. I'll respond.
