No freaking way! Why do you even ask that? You look wonderful!

I think I do. :(

 

I see how big my belly and my hips are.

I jus****ched this video from Melting Mama, where she's talking about this very issue.  I thought it was helpful.

I dunno, I looked at it thought I looked like a cow. When I told her that, she started talking about how bad she felt about picking on me in grade school about my weight. She also said to me "keep on going with the weight loss",  and asked me what i'm having for dinner before we left.

I just thought I was thinner.

Oh I have been there. Just as recently as the other day when i "wanted" a preggo pic of me with my kids. I was horrified at how I think I looked. My son told me I looked beautiful and I always do........

But I have a demented sense of how I look. I always think I look fat, bad, old, etc..........

But you do look great!

No, you do not look fat - you look fabulous. I don't know if we'll ever be able to see ourselves the way others see us, tho - when I look at pics of myself I am so critical - either look fat, or old - and yet I know I'm not FAT anymore - I'm just fluffy now. Its a mind/head game we play with ourselves because we were so heavy for so long that we can't imagine being as small as we are now.

You look great - I'm sure you feel great - and go by the size of your clothing, the number on the scale, and the way your friends and family see you now. You'll always be your own worst critic.
