I have come to the realisation that I may have some internalised fat phobia - how do I deal with this?

Over the last few years, I have lost a significant amount of weight (roughly 50kg). Although I have always been physically active ( regular gym goer, sports etc) I fixed up my diet which unsurprisingly made a major difference with weight loss.

However I find myself being terribly judgemental regarding larger people - I saw a man eating a tub of ice cream straight out of the tub on the bus and felt somewhat disgusted. Then I self reflected, thinking who am I to judge. Obviously I don't know him, and I know from first hand experience how uncomfortable and damaging for people to make assumptions about you and your lifestyle purely based on a few minutes that they see you.

Has anyone ever dealt with this? Developing a judgemental streak towards larger people after weight loss, whilst also know what that judgement is like.

Please share thoughts.
