I spent most of the week feeling very overweight. From back support belts that were too tight to squeezing into tight spaces at my new job, I got a lot of reminders that my belly still hangs out. And the most frustrating part of all of that is that when I stand profile to the mirror, I don't feel I look all that much different than when I started.
