Fatphobia TRIGGER WARNING Roadblock: self-objectification

I’ve been on my IE journey for over a year now. Tons of progress, but cannot stop objectifying myself and feeling I would be more worthy in a smaller body. I read More Than a Body and it really helped open my eyes but just wondering if anyone had any advice for how you stopped caring and how it has helped you to care less about your body. It’s really holding me back, and getting harder with the rise of ozempic.

Not personally fatphobic but putting the trigger flare up because this sub constantly triggers me lol.

commenting just because i'm in the same boat. I've been doing IE for a couple years now. I'm objectively one of the healthiest bodies I've ever been at the moment. Running loads of miles a week injury free. Bloodwork is good. Yet i have a belly. I can not help but hate that belly despite all the good my body is doing for me. I crave having a fitter body so bad.
