I am having a really hard time seeing myself in this new body, and what I mean by that is I do not think I look that different and I think I still look terrible in a way I think its my mind playing tricks on me to keep me working hard toward my ultimate goal then part of me thinks it the whole ive been fat my entore life so im just not accepting that this is really happening to me I constantly make side by sides and pick my body apart my arms being my biggest target for my mean comments about myself I was 310 ia m now 224 and I still fee like I am 310 lbs when does it kick in that youve actually lost the weight?

86 lbs in four months post op is a huge accomplishment! I think it's true for most of us that we have more experience looking at ourselves in the mirror and not liking what we see than we do looking in the mirrow and ackowleding our successes. It will take time to un-learn those old messages. In the meantime, I think you look fab, especially those lovely long legs. I was not blessed in the length of leg department

Same here. Started at 309, 224 now and I do not "feel" any different. I look in the mirror and see the same thing my mind has always seen. I think part of it is that at 309, my mind did not realize exactly how big I was and it saw me at about my current size. I have to look at side by sides to see what others are seeing and commenting on. What a trip this has been and will continue to be. It's nice to log on today see posts describing exactly what I've beed dealing with.
