I am down 140 pounds at 5'7 I weigh now 160
I have had MANY MANY compliments on how I look, but when I look in the mirror or see a picture of me I still saw the obese girl. At one of our support group meetings we had a phychologist come, and that was the question I sent in to be discussed.. well I was shocked I was not the only one that thought this. Many others there also agreed and discussed it. The phychologist said it was so normal and soon the image will catch up in our brain. WELL I NOW see me as how I actually look.. (in tears once again here)
So give it time your mind will catch up with the new body image
