What does thin feel like?



Recommended Posts

I have gone from a size 18 to a size 8. I can see how much smaller I am but I don't feel thin. Can't help it but I keep waiting to feel thin and I don't know what I am waiting for. Has anyone else experienced this and if so when did it change? If it did. Thanks.

I'm working with a therapist because I am also trying to figure this all out too. I was a 26/28 and now am wearing a 6 or 8 so I understand your issue very well.

What does thin feel like ? HEAVEN !!!!! That being said, I was a size 18 too, now a nice 10. To me its not so much a number on the scale or a size of clothing, as it is a state of mind. I still need to lose 20 lbs, but being healthy and happy and liking how I look and feel is a great place to be. Yeah, that would be my definition of "thin" . Everything else is just a bonus !

Ive gone from 206 to now 152-155........

It doesnt feel as good as skinny folk made it look when I was heavier.

While I do appreciate the decrease in # on the scale & the size 18 to 8-9 but I dont really feel skinny until I pull out old fat pics.

And its nothing like seeing the bones in my chest to really get me stoked!

Yes I feel the struggle. I'm still picking up big clothes when I go shopping. It's something I have to get use to. I have to take a friend shopping with me because I'm not used to shopping for smaller sizes
