in Introduce Yourself
Started using MFP on Jan 2. I have since lost 32 pounds as of yesterday. Pretty pleased with myself right now.

I was at a meeting and had to walk between 2 chairs. My thought - There's NO WAY I can fit my butt through those chairs. It was the only way to get through, so I had to go. I fit through, easily. So my question is this... how long does it take for your mind to catch up to the weight loss? Just curious with other people's experiences... Thanks.

    Congrats! :) It's taking a while for me. Some days I really notice the huge difference in the way my clothes fit or in the mirror, and others I feel like I am still my heaviest. It's definitely a process

    Personally, I don't see myself being any different. I feel different in how I move around and whatnot, but I look like nothing's changed to myself.

    I lost about 70 or more lbs and I still have huge body image issues.
