lower self~esteem??

I am starting my 4-week liquid medifast diet soon and have worried a bit about the same thing.  From what you have said about people's comments, it seems like you are looking great and don't look like you are melting.  If you did look that way people would probably just not say a word instead of complimenting you    You are probably just worried about loose skin and not used to the way you are starting to look so getting nervous about things.  I'm sure you are looking fabulous just need to let your mind adjust to the changes so you can see it as well.

By the way...I've looked at a TON of before and after pictures...and there were only a couple of pictures out of hundreds that looked "melty" afterwards and they were much much older so probably did not have ANY elasticity left...which isn't you :)
