For the past few months I have been having a really big problem with my weight and eating. I've been working at it, and recently I have gotten my eating patterns back to normal.

I'm back to my normal weight, which is 125, but I am so unhappy with it. I feel huge and disgusting with myself. Basically, I have a really bad self image...

I liked it better when I was at 115. Everyone told me how unhealthy I was looking though, which is what made me put the weight back on. Now that its on, I just want it back off.

I have such a huge conflict going on within myself. It takes so much effort for me to eat like I should, and then putting up with the horrible hatred for myself afterwards.

I look in the mirror and all I can see are huge chubby cheeks, thick legs and my horribly overweight stomach/sides. It is tearing me apart because I don't know why I see that image in the mirror...

I need help breaking myself out of this mindset...I can't seem to do it/keep it up myself.

Weight is not usually something people are comfortable with. But I think health ultimately overules weight. Since you have such a large fork in the road here, my best advice would be to do 3 things.
weigh the pros and cons
assess all your other strengths and your own opinions
and define what is best in the long run
my point of view is, there is always something you will not like. but giving into a weakness like this can really hurt you. it wont be easy, but maybe you can let the good things outweigh the bad.
i wish i could help you more. just let me know if you want to talk

Focus on what you like when you look in the mirror then just make yourself believe you love the rest
