Heifer Days

[superbadgirl]

Ugh, I still feel like Fattie McFatterson. I wish there was a cure for this sort of thing. Even though I look just the same as I did last week when, y'know, I didn't feel like a heifer, I can't seem to stop the irritation I get when I see myself in a mirror or window. Easy answer is don't look...but what goes hand-in-hand with this cow feeling, for me, is an obsession with looking at my reflection. Like I'm trying to confirm or deny just how fat I am. And suddenly the world is full of funhouse mirrors, because surely my butt couldn't be that big.

Hopefully by tomorrow or the next day I'll feel cute again. Maybe there doesn't need to be a cure for fat days, but a way to bottle the effects of cute days to use when overwhelmed with ickiness.

Or maybe taking my fat butt for a walk would help do the trick.

I do that, too. I've finally started telling myself in the mirror before I go out, "You look good, stop thinking about it" and various other mantras. It actually works for me, because I forget to think about what I look like.
