One of my therapists has a theory that what you crave food-wise hints at what you crave in life. I was thinking about that this morning as I was searching for something to wear. My wardrobe options are shrinking as my size is growing, and the thought that went through my head was that I was going to start bursting out of my clothes soon.
That led me to think about what the metaphor might be...perhaps I want to bust out of this life I'm living that doesn't feel like me. I certainly don't feel at home in my body right now!
I want something different and new but I keep seeking solace in my old habits, my old ways. It's hard to feel stuck and sometimes I think it out would feel like the plunge you take into the pool or the bandaid you rip off quickly.
In the meantime, though, I'm just feeling large and not in charge. :p
