rosehips 121 Posted April 5, 2013 I was sleeved 8/27 & am down 100 plus a few, I started out at 290. I am having this odd reaction to this weight loss. When I started getting close to 200, I wanted it to slow down, I got like scared but I don't consciously feel scared, I am happy, thrilled, loving life. OK, so the scale goes to 195, all is good, goes to 190, all is good, now it is falling below 190, I am at 25 lbs to goal and my head is screaming, wait, not so fast, help, I'm not ready. Ready for what? I don't know? Is anyone else experiencing any of these CRAZY FEELINGS? P.s. most the time I love the scale going down, this comes and goes 1 920amy reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

karenb4729 309 Posted April 5, 2013 I understand it! I'm now 3 lbs from goal and I don't know what to do because it's been years since I was at a normal body weight and wasn't dieting. I think there is also the fear of regaining the weight. Its very scary. 1 rosehips reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cairobat 52 Posted November 18, 2014 Yeah, and I'm really glad it's not just me, so thanks for posting this. For some reason, I am afraid of being a "thin person". I have been overweight so long and for some reason I am still psychologically holding on to my old identity. I even go so far as to sabotage myself sometimes, but fortunately I pull myself out of it before I do much harm. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
