Balance is something I need to work on as well...ughComment

One leg deadlifts are a hell of a balance workout, as I found out two days ago. Worth it in many ways.Comment

Rinsplit 2.0 week 5 day 3
Ballance
Back and core, days 4, and 5 (5 bc it was ballance day)
o)
"Supposed" to do a fasting day today. But, I am still sick-ish (feel better but cough/mucus are lingering). I don't want to stress body out while healing (still sleeping extra, also). So, I will do my tiny breakfast/can of soup for dinner but I will take a real lunch with me. So will still have a super low calorie day, just not fasting. I made some killer lasagna w a ton of extra veggies in it yesterday so will bring some of that. (Added butternut squash, kale, and mushrooms in with the sausage (used 1 pkg italian chicken sausage and 1 of those split hot/sweet italian sausage packs), and put more kale into the ricotta instead of spinach. )

I need to actually get eating in check, tho. I am letting it ride w attempting 5/2 and "little old lady dieting" through the holiday stress season at work but if I'm not where I want to be in January it is back to keto since that actually worked for me. I will take diminished training capacity for a few months as my penance for being unable to follow a normal diet properly. I am just so uncomfortable in my skin atm it is absurd.Comment

I'm sorry you're dealing with that.
I find that full body motion exercises help. Combat moves and yoga are my favourites, but even burpees and pushups help. If I have to consciously think about and engage my entire body, it helps me be proud of what my body is capable of, and helps me centre in myself.
Maybe consider talking to a professional, if available? Body dismorphia is a serious mental health issue, often related to anxiety and depression. "Just get thin already" doesn't always work as an approach, as anyone who deals with anorexia will tell you.
I hope you find an approach that works for you, something that deals with this constant self-hate. You deserve to be happy in your skin, to be confident in your appearance, your abilities, and yourself. Best of luck.
