Dreaming of Losing Weight - dream meaning with inherited lore

Your body in the mirror looks noticeably thinner, or the clothes you used to wear hang loosely. You may feel good because you feel lighter, or worry because you look too thin.

Korean lore: Traditionally, becoming thinner has sometimes been linked to worry or the loss of energy. If you felt light and relieved in the dream, it may also be seen as letting go of an old burden. (In folk dream interpretation, a thinner appearance has sometimes been read together with images of depletion and worry.)

Through the mind: You may have felt as though your energy were draining away, or that you were gradually making yourself smaller in relationships and at work. Such dreams can also occur during a time when you are focused on real physical changes, such as dieting or a health checkup.
