Extra attention
I shared about this at a meeting tonight, but everyone seemed to have the same problem and couldn't offer any suggestions. Thought I'd post here just to see.
With weight loss comes extra attention, particularly being a woman and particularly from men. It's almost like you become public property instead of just sort of being ignored. Today an employee followed me around a store and continued to follow me even when I said I didn't need any help. I feel like if I had grown up "normal" I would know what to do, but I don't! I have no idea how to react, how to feel, what to do.
So here is where the fear comes in. It feels uncomfortable and whenever I have gotten to this point in my weight loss, I freak out and climb back up again. I have been praying for God to remove this fear so that I can keep my abstinence.
Any input would be greatly appreciated!
