I was overweight since I was a young child, kindergarten is the first time I was called fat. I didn't feel like I looked that big but I remember being in 8th grade and wearing a woman's size 12 / large or XL so I was big. When I was 26 I spent two years losing weight and ended up getting pregnant a few months after reaching my lowest adult weight, and then struggled for years to lose the weight again. I took diet pills and got skinny fat for about a year and then gained weight again once I developed a tolerance to the pills. I have only seen myself overweight basically my whole life. I have lost 70 lbs and still look big. I'm a size 4/small or medium. I can see my ribs and a solid outline of my abs, I have visible bones and muscles everywhere but I look huge. I had to take a picture of a sign in a window so I ended up seeing my reflection in the window in the picture, I look huge. I was at the mall and everytime I'd catch a glance of myself as I was walking around, I thought I looked big. I look at old progress pictures and I can see a big difference from 70 lbs ago, but after I lost about 30 lbs, I don't see the difference in the last 40 lbs. It's hard to explain, I see that I don't have fat rolls all around my bra line anymore, and I went from 38 to 34 bra band, but I feel like my body looks like it's the same size. It's like my brain can't believe what my eyes see or something
