I'm still way underweight, but I've gained enough and have the refeeding effect of it all hitting my abdomen. I know this is normal, but honest to god I can't stand it. It's like looking at myself in the funhouse mirror. And the last few days it's been even worse, I don't know what's happening -- my thighs look like sausages, my belly looks pregnant, and my arms look twice their size and flabby as hell. It's horrible. I don't know how to handle it.
I did buy a pair of yoga pants, though, because my jeans don't fit anymore. This totally sucks.
Has anyone else been through this? How long does this hell last?

Looking in the mirror is a nightmare for me. My image of myself is totally distored. I know that I am overweight and if there is a margin of being acceptably overweight then that would be me. Yet I see an elephant. Not a person who needs to lose 15kg.
I am also having a gargantuan fight with my arms. They're the size my thighs used to be!
Ugh!
I know how you feel. For me it never ends.
