Do you ever 'forget' that you were fat?

 I also still see myself as big and still have to get use to guys saying I'm sexy.  Even when I look into the mirror I see the fat me.  It's not until I pull out my clothes and see how much smaller they are from a size 24-26 to 12-14 

But my favorite is when I show a guy a picture of my self post op (315 lbs) they always say "You Could Have Gotten It" or "I would Have Hit It" and I then tell them I had no problem with "Getting It" 

Hell, when I was a size 32 and fat, I didn't think I was THAT fat.  But as I look at my size 14 pics, I keep saying to myself " Neci, you gotta lose more weight". 

I think I look good, but I still have that inner fat girl.  I STILL order too much food, I still try on clothes bigger than what I am, and I still put the seatbelt ALL the way out in the car, lol.  I am forever grateful for how far I've come, yet I still see room for improvement.

I do know a person who was just as big (if not bigger than I was) and now that she's small...acts like she was never fat.  I pray that she regains her senses and stops thinking that way.

Trina,

I never forget what I looked like and felt like...thus the reason I keep old pictures.  I never ever want to go back there.  I try to remember what it was like to have peeps look at me like I was a member of the freakshow in a circus; about using the seat-extender on an airplane; about having to shop in the "big and tall" shop; about being self-conscious when dining out; about, for the most part, keeping to myself for fear of being the butt of jokes.

So, yes, I remind myself constantly that, if not careful, I can just as easily go BACK to that person.
