What is it about us that makes us have "skinny" days or "fat" days. It's amazing how I can wake up one day and feel very trim and fit and the next day feel like the biggest slob in the whole world. I wonder why that is?

Obviously our weight doesn't fluctuate that much in a day. Maybe there is some way to "switch" our brains into thinking every day is a skinny day. Imagine how happy we would all feel if every day we woke up and felt thinner and more beautiful than the day before.

Maybe we can work on that.

I'm having a skinny day by the way... what kind of day are you having?

After looking at your stats I can see why you are having a skinny day!!!! Good job. I'm having a bloated beach ball day :)

I am having a fat day. I totally hear you. Yesterday, was a good day. I really do not understand sometimes how I get myself so down.:c(

Crazy,

I guess maybe recognizing that it's more a feeling than a reality could be a good first step to getting over this image of ourselves. Obviously at 130lbs you are *not* fat and unless you are 4' tall, you are probably well within acceptible "healthy" weight standards. You should feel great about that!

Consider this as a first step to "fat day" recovery. You recognize you're having a fat day, and you're dealing with it.

*hugs* tomorrow will be a "thin" day... I can feel it!

I'm fat today as well I think because I haven't been as active and the shirt I'm wearing isn't at all flattering it shows the real deal .-baby steps-:(

I'm having a fat day. Mainly because I spent the day sitting in a gym writing an exam. Right now my brain is too fuzzy to encourage me to do anything past go pee and sit in bed. That will be the next stop. Tomorrow I resume my walkies. :D I havent done any real exercise in the past two days, due to the exam stress I'm feeling. But, a bonus, I'm not eating my way through it. Go me!!!

I am definately having a fat day today.. I feel bloated and disgusting.... I hate feeling this way.

lol I know what you mean! At my weight, I realize I LOOK fat fat all the time, but some days for some reason I do feel thinner. I think its just the day after I've had a good exercise/eating day. Just feel good about what I did the day before. Plus when cycle time comes around, all of us bloat, which feels awful! lol

I certainly understand the skinny fat day thing. I had a skinny weekend last weekend but now I am on the fence. I am just here. Not a skinny day, not a fat day, just a day where I am in a body I don't belong in.

I think what we do and eat plays a role in the type of day we have. My skinny weekend was full of things I love to do. It was a beautiful day we went for a long motorcycle ride and just enjoyed what we did. I ate healthy and felt good. :)

See you soon.

I know that when I go without water for a day I am definitly having a fat day. Also too much fiber makes me have a fat day - both of those make me bloated.

Hello

I go through that too, some days I wake up and feel fat and some days like yesterday I feel skinny. I am not sure why. I think one reason is if I took in too much sodium and feel bloated from water retention. I think that has something to do with it for me. I'm not sure. I also think the mind can play tricks on you too.

Take care
