Up until now I really couldnt see my 100 lb lost. I felt like I looked the same as I did before. But suddenly I can see it now! I am so much thinner! I have an hourglass shape which I have always wanted. It is so exciting! I can't imagine what I am going to look like when I reach my goal!

Congratulations! It is so hard for many of us to see the changes in our bodies. I still struggle with that all of the time. I'm happy for you!

I'll be 3 months out next week and I've lost 80lbs since surgery. I still don't see the lighter me. I still see the almost 500lb woman I used to be.

KT, you know i have been whining about not losing as much. I had lost 13 prior to surgery and 60 since surgery. But today I was able to PUT ON, not SQUEEZ INTO an XL uniform. I was wearing 3x/4x prior to surgery. I was so psyched. I was like I am gonna wear this uniform all weekend. LOL. You are doing great. 100lbs is awesome. I can only imagine.

KAtie I am right there with ya. It is hard to see it in ourselves. But I think just like how we have to know look at food different we have to start looking at ourselves differently. I am just now seeing it in myself.

And I agree post some pics so we can see!
