Tag: feeling fat

The alarm goes off, waking you to another long day. Before your feet even hit the floor, you begin your body-checking rituals.

Ritual 1 - Lay perfectly flat on your bed. Can you feel your hipbones?

Ritual 2 - Stand sideways in front of the mirror. Does your stomach look "flat-enough?"

Ritual 3 - Step on the scale. Have you lost any weight since yesterday?

The answers to these questions determine not only how you will think and feel for the rest of your day, but also how you dress and present yourself to the world.
