Why is the steering wheel so far away?!

So I feel naked or vulnerable in my car now because my belly fat used to be some strange security blanket of closeness to the steering wheel. Now I am really far away from the steering wheel and I feel like I'm this gangly little creature that is just floating in a sea of open space! What's even crazier is I've only lost 35lbs!!

I picked up on the part of your post that is not really a NSV.  You say that you now feel vulnerable and I remember feeling the exact same way when I first lost weight.  I think it is normal to feel this way as we really do take up so much less physical space now.  This simple reality made me feel tiny but not in a good way.  I had to find a loud and strong voice to counteract my "smallness".  I get where you are coming from on this, and I posted something similar when I lost weight.

You might like this slam poet and what they have to say on taking up space.
