First let's start off with the good news I'm down 2.4 pounds. Yippee!
Now for the "oh no!" If you have spent anytime reading my blog I am pretty open about my weight. Mind you I only have a handful of friends who know me in person who read this. About two hours ago I posted my fitbit stats for the week to both my Facebook and Instagram. I like to share my happy moments in the hopes it might motivate someone else. (Btw I am still in the closet about my blog via Facebook). I noticed someone liked my picture and realized that my weight was posted there for the world to see! That's scary and embarrassing! I immediately deleted it! Feeling slightly relieved that it had only been up a couple for hours.
When I was heavier, there was NO way you'd get me to admit to my weight. I think it's natural...we are SO judged by that number, no matter how insignificant it truly is, that we're pre-disposed to keep it quiet. Even now that I weigh much less than most people I know (because I'm not just healthy, but also tiny in stature), I don't share my weight often. Now, however, it's because people react negatively to how small the number is. And it's really NOT...not for me, at least!
ReplyDeleteHave a GREAT week!!
Hopefully the judgement of weight will stop one day..
