cros post - do you ever feel like?

Do you ever feel like you weigh 500 pounds even though you know you dont?   i'm what? 3.5 years post op and have done well keeping my wt off - but, i still feel like i am too heavy - seems like no number is low enough - why?   does anyone else feel this way?

I am 6 years out on Monday coming...I do feel large sometimes still.  It does take a lot for your head to get around the change from the identity you once had....I weighed between 250 and 300 pounds for for 26 years...I'm always in awe when I fold my size 10 jeans when I do the laundry.  I can't figure out how I get my body into such "reasonably  sized" clothing items. Then again I am really good at noticing where I still have fleshy parts and over focus on those spots...I'm not great at looking at the whole picture. 

When I get into a negative frame of mind because I never got to my 135 goal, I force myself to get out the shorts that I kept, and the photos I have dubbed "formerly known as Alice" and spend my time putting things in perspective again.

yep 9 years out still have dysmorphic thinking

At 400+lbs I was shocked when I saw pictures and saw what I really looked like, I really did not see myself that way...I mean I knew I was big but didn not visualize myself that big.

At goal now I still focus too much on the thighs, definately kept my pear shape. When I see pictures I am amazed how tiny I look--my arms and face look so tiny and the legs really look okay.

so when huge I felt smaller
when smaller I feel bigger..................so mixed up!
