Yes. You can say that. We've all been there. My mom once told me that what you think about the most in a day is what is most important to you. That shocked me because I realised that I was thinking about my weight more than anything... which really meant I was spending most of the day thinking about me instead of others (or important matters. Shift your focus. It's hard. The days I don't think about my weight are the ones I'm having the most fun or working so hard, I don't have a chance. I keep saying that losing weight is simple... but it's not easy. The great thing about this site is that we can admit these feelings and hurdles to each other in a way that we probably can't to friends and family. Keep going. We've all been there (I was there all last week), 

Hell yes! Agree with changeup and can add that I am a frequent flyer to this unhappy mindset of double self judgment. Scream or do whatever you can to lighten the load. Sometimes acknowledging it is enough to keep moving forward.
