Had a wierd dream

So i dreamed I was trying on all these clothes to find the right thing to wear to some event and looked in the mirror and I looked FAT. And so I kept trying different clothes because I kept thinking "I am NOT fat, must be something wrong with these clothes, got to find the ones that show I am not fat". It was odd and discouraging. Then I woke up and thought "yay I am not fat".  It wasn't a nightmare. Just annoying.  Diane

The subconscious mind! It may not even have anything to do with weight.

What does it mean?  I want to know.  I often dream of my old body.  

Usually for me it's being squeezed into clothes that are too small.  I dream of the discomfort of wearing a size 18 jeans when i should be in a 22.  Then i wake up and put on a size 4.  Why do we do this?

It may be another issue that you feel uncomfortable about, may not even be as literal as the weight issue, though God knows we prob all feel insecure about maintaining our losses.

i have no idea why i dreamed this other than i just that day bought a bunch of stuff on sale at kmart all size small and all without trying on. in the dream i kept believeing it was the clothes that were at issue and not that i was fat because i was sure i was not. go figure after 50 plus years of being fat.    diane

I never dream about my old body. But I do sometimes wake up and think I weigh about 20 pounds more than I do.
