How do you deal with negative feedback?
My best friend today told me that I "don't look good" and that I need to stop counting calories / thinking about my nutrition. He said that in the past it hadn't been so bad but 'this time' I am taking it too far. In the past, I restricted calories to absurd amounts, and trashed my health. This time, I am eating at a…
