How I Cured My Body Dysmorphia

Like most people in fitness, I’ve struggled with body dysmorphia. For a long time, every time I looked in the mirror, I felt like I was both fat and small at the same time, even when I was actually in great shape. If you’ve ever felt that way, you’re not alone. And while I wouldn’t say I’m 100% “cured,” I’ve gotten to a much healthier place with how I see my body. Here are a few things that really helped me along the way: Focus on performance, not just appearance. Shifting my mindset toward what my body can do instead of only how it looks made a huge difference. Change how you think about fat.
