Out of Body Experience

Okay friends, I need your help! Just when I thought I was getting past all of the mental stuff, I find myself back in it again. Here's the newest issue - I have become obsessed with comparing myself to other people. I look at others that I see and wonder, "Do I look like that?", "Am I that heavy?", "Is my butt that big?". I also do the "I wonder how much she weighs?". I've even been watching the sizes fellow shoppers are picking up and trying to make comparisons. Don't get me wrong, I am not judging anyone else's appearance - I just have this insatiable need to see where I fit into the whole scheme of things. I look at pictures of myself, but I just don't see it. I have always been a terrible judge of weight/size/age because those things aren't important to me. Even now, I can't shop for myself because everything that I think will fit me is too big! I keep wishing for an out-of-body experience so that I can see for myself. Somebody please tell me this is normal... Thanks! Jen

Jen.... This is not normal! You're crazy! LOL..... I'm kidding! It's normal to be aware of your surroundings. It's actually a good thing that you are so aware of yourself and others around you! Maybe this is a way for you to become the "new" Jen! You have incorporated diet and excercise into your life now and your old behaviors are disappearing. I think you're doing great! Keep up the good work! Take care Megan B

Thanks ladies Hey Megan - did your email address change? Can you send me the new one? Everything I send to you is getting bounced back. Unless of course you're blocking the emails from the crazy woman Jen

Oops! Sorry! I'll change my profile as soon as I'm done with this email! Yes, I did change my email address It's now [email protected] Thanks for reminding me! Megan B

Hey Jen, I totally know what you mean, I have no idea what I look like anymore. I wish I could see myself like everyone else sees me. I look in the mirror or at a picture but i dont see any difference. Oh well, our minds will catch up soon. With love, Em
