Can you think yourself fat?

Article Abstract:

Sandra Blakeslee recalled in her book "The Body has a Mind of Its Own" how diet and exercise can fail if people still have a self-image of being fat. The phenomenon called "phantom fat" describes people who still see themselves as fat even after losing weight, which can be managed through various methods. Experiences and works on this topic are given.
