I lost abt 20 pounds early last year and gained all them back now. I have already started to work out and control my diet. But, I can not take it when people say how big i look like now ( critics abt my rapid dysmorphia). I am always depressed.I Lost all my confidence and self esteem.

Keep trying. You're doing good. Critics are people that can't do something themselves and spend their lives putting down those that have had the courage to try. Feel sorry for critics. They have no life of their own. Spend time doing things you injoy with people you injoy being with.

Most of the time, when people get shocked and comment on how much weight you've gained is not being a critic of that person. It means that they like your weight before and this will be the thesame people who will compliment you once you succeeded in putting off the excess pounds.

Ignore those negative people. YOU know that you're moving forward. Get around some positive, motivated people. My wife joined CURVES recently a they are really supportive ( as am I, I'm very proud of her). If you don't want to join an organization, then find a local public place where others go to walk and exercise. I think you'll find they are all supportive, most have been exactly where you are and want you to succeed as well.
