I saw that episode of HOUSE, MD, and when I saw what he did, I thought, "wow, that totally makes sense!"
I don't know how the box would work for me, as I'd see lumpy, fatty, dimply, round bits reflected back. :) Although, I do like to FEEL my body with my eyes closed, cause it feels nice--soft, muscle underneath from personal training since June 30th of last year. Velvety skin with muscle underneath feels GOOD. So, I like how I feel more than how I look, although I can look at myself nude and think, "Here is nicely curved, there is smooth.." but the overall...nah. Still obese and icky to me. Especially my butt. Hate, hate to see that dimply mess, even if it's firmer and higher.
I have a bad left knee, and yes, part of my WL mo tivation is not wanting to damage it so badly I need a walker. I have to be very, very careful how much I walk/move/cardio/squat, etc.
I hope you find a way to heal--whether from within or without or through benefactors. :)
