I am R3P4 and down 60(ish) pounds. I am 5'10" and have gone from a size 20/22 to 14/16 and XXL tops to L tops. This is a big change, my face looks totally different along with everything else.
BUT... I am really really really struggling to get my mind to match my body. In the last few weeks I haven't lost more weight, but my body has really started tightening up again and its become really obvious to everyone just how much weight I've lost. So I am getting all the "oh my God, how much have you lost??" comments. Which is fun, but its almost like I don't believe them. Or I just can't see it. Some days I am amazed at how much better I look and other days, I can't tell that I lost weight at all!
Or... if someone calls me "skinny"...I was at my grandma's funeral yesterday and all I heard was "you're so skinny", but I just kept wanting to say "but I'm not!! a 14/16 and around 200 lbs is NOT skinny!!" I think they'd be shocked if I told them my size/weight.
This is just not something I thought would be an issue, I thought I'd be loving the comments (and I do most days!) but I just CANNOT see what they see a lot of the time. I know I look better and I feel better, but I just don't know when my brain will actually "see" my body for what it is now. That's part of why I need a break...
Anyone else going through this??? -

Isn't it amazing how one negative thought or comment can stick with use like glue and SEVERAL positive thoughts and comments make us question what they are saying?
Sometimes when others tell me I look great I want to shout, "YOU HAVEN'T SEEN ME NAKED!" -

I TOTALLY get what you're saying! I'm down 78 pounds and still stop at the mirror with my mouth open. Who IS that woman? I sure hope I eventually get the fat lady out of my brain. -

Ims and Daycare-I understand completely. My highest weight was 265, lost alot with phentermine and got stuck and then have done 3 rounds of hcg and lost more. I am now 5'8" and 136 (well life sucks right now and I am 139 with a steak day in mind) and with clothes I most of the time can say I look good. But without clothes I see the same fat girl and cry. I lost so much weght so fast that without clothes I am "bag lady" carrying too much excess baggage. Its grotesque for me. But my family who doesn't see me naked says I am getting too skinny. I am happy for myself and proud of myself but my self esteem didn't change. -
I completely understand! Earlier this week I went shopping for some clearance priced summer clothes for my cruise. A wonderful saleslady went to put my picks in a dressing room and noticed the size I had chosen. Her comment was that XL's would be to big for me. She went and collected mediums and larges for me. She was right but in my mind I'm an XL.

I hear you! My own experience is a lot of the same. I spent so much of my life hiding in bulky/baggie clothes. My biggest size was a 18 and the clue that I might need to lose weight was when I went to get out of the car and split the seam in the seat of my pants! So, those 18s were SNUG! I'm now in a size 8/10 depending on the quality of the clothing. I'm still not able to wrap my head around that I'm not plus sized. I enjoy compliments, but wonder if people are just being polite. I also focus more on the 15 pounds I have left to lose instead of the nearly 50 pounds I've lost since those days of sporting size 18s! I really want to move towards like me in the body I have!
