Can I ask a question I am trying to lose weight but with my health anxiety I worry about losing weight. In April I was 197 now of course I was eating ice cream every day and not eating right so it was a hard time for me. 2 weeks ago I went to doctor at 4 with clothes on I was 185 which is still obese!

This morning I was 178.3 and now I am worried. I am on weight watchers and trying to make every effort to eat right!

Does anyone else have the same worry!

I'm unsure what's causing your worry? It seems like you are on a great track? Slow and steady is best because then you won't gain it back? What's your concern? Too fast? Too slow?

Too fast! I know that is a sign of illness! But I am not losing weight that fast!

Hi, I used to suffer a lot with anxiety in my 20s and made myself really ill at one point. I understand where you are coming from but you just need to remember that weight loss due to health issues happens when you are not trying to lose weight. What you are experiencing is weight loss because you are trying to do it which is fine. Keep up the good work you will be ok.

Not what you're looking for?
