When I look at old photos of what I first started losing weight, like in the first 30 to 50 pounds (I lost 120 overall so far, my highest was 350), I look so huge and awful still, but back then I really thought I looked good for the most part.
It makes me concerned for when I take a photo or look in the mirror now and think it looks good, I know now that’s only because I’m smaller than I was before, but I still probably look huge and unsightly to the average person. It really has my perceptions of everything shattered and I can’t feel good or proud of myself at all. My view of “normal” is so warped because I grew up morbidly obese my entire life. I wish I could see what I looked like through other people’s eyes. But I can’t do that. I have no idea what my body even looks like anymore.
