Matt Z 4,139 Posted May 29, 2018 I'm wondering if it's just me, but lately, I have these moments where I don't recognize myself as me. I've sidestepped to avoid someone I saw in my periphery only to realize it was myself in the mirror I was seeing. I've had times sitting around with friends where, I just don't recognize the body I'm looking at. I've taken photos of my holding something and it took a second to realize that was my hand. It's not a bad thing overall, just really really weird and I was curious if it was just me or if others were experiencing the same "not my body" moments. 2 BigViffer and Matt Z reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DaleCruse 756 Posted May 29, 2018 Many people who have battled weight for a long time don't recognize themselves in the mirror after they've lost a significant amount of weight. Others of us are the opposite: For those who haven't battled weight for a long time, when we gain a lot of weight, we don't recognize ourselves anymore. That's one motivator for pursuing surgery! Then, when we do lose a lot of weight, we start recognizing ourselves in the mirror again. No matter which group you fall into, you are not alone. Good luck. 1 Matt Z reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
