But in underwear it's..well not as good... that does get me down a bit...
Does this happen to you?
How do you shake off that feeling?

I tell myself "Yo it's gonna take time,be patient,you're doing great" but it still bothers me a bit.

    You are telling yourself the right things. You just have to start believing it and believing in you.

    Weight is but a part of who we are. Regardless of what the scale may say, or how you think you look in your underwear, you are still uniquely fabulous for the woman you are. Start giving yourself much credit. You do yourself a disservice, when you allow yourself to get down over one small part of who you are.

    Be proud of you and keep moving forward. :smiley:

    My opinion is what matters most to me, I wanna look at me in undies and say woohoo!!!! not be like "Hmm..-sighs- ok then we're not there yet"

    I do the same thing. It sounds kinda mean, but what kinda makes me feel better is the idea that it could be so, so, soooo much worse. If you compare to the average American population, I'm doing pretty dang well! Lol
