Dear
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns

I went through your details. I suggest you not to worry much. In fact, you are complicating yourself. Who has told you to be health conscious. Your health consciousness is supposed to be limited up to exercising enough and eating balanced diet. You are not supposed to be anxious about your health and weight. There are people who are in trouble physically even though they are of the right weight. There are people otherwise also. Health consciousness is not health anxious. Do whatever you can and enjoy the life when you can.

If you require more of my help in this aspect, Please post a direct question to me in this URL. http://goo.gl/aYW2pR. Make sure that you include every minute details possible. I shall prescribe the needed psychotherapy techniques.

Hope this answers your query. Available for further clarifications.
Good luck.
