For people who has lost large amounts of weight, can you suggest resources that helped you deal with your body image once you lost all the weight?

    I can't say my self esteem is any better than it was at 560 lb. but my health is certainly better and even though I still avoid mirrors when at all possible. I know surgery at the end of this journey will fix what I can't, no matter how hard I try. I work with a therapist on my food addiction and self image and it has help tremendously.

    Thanks I remember it was hard to deal with all the looks/comments and confidence last time I lost weight, so I really want to make sure I do my homework and get resources in place as I get closer to my goal this time. Even though I was 5'9 and 149lbs I still felt like the fat girl... I want to shed this fat girl once and for ALL
