Let me first state that the first and only psychiatrist I've seen said that I had no insight. So if my comments are way off base I have a legit excuse.
Perhaps AK it's your way of having some control. Like saying up yours to others trying to control your life, by others I don't neccessarily mean just people but also things like appointments etc. Does this make any sense?
My psychologist is big on anxiety, so perhaps for this reason now I like to blame everything on anxiety. Check out some web-sites on GAD, gerneralized anxiety disorder. It can cause the fatigue and difficulty concentrating, plus other things.
And then my thinking without any interference from professionals is that we're all different. I too like dogs. They all have different personalities. Some really enjoy food, you can't keep the dish full all day or they'll overeat, so with them you give measured amounts at regular intervals. Then you have ones like me running around too busy running around in circles that they can't be bothered to eat. Which dog is normal? What is normal?
Reminds me of my grandmother. She was complaining about someone. I don't know if it was their clothes or a particular mannerism. My answer, imagine how boring this world would be if we were all the same!
Regarding the weight, it may be something you will be challenged by all your life. Just keep the neccesities in the house. None of the empty calories. And most importantly don't let it rule you.
BEST WISHES
