Need surgery for the head to shrink the image I see
I SOOOO hear you on this one...I will stand infront of the full-length mirror and be talking to my fiancee and ask him how he can stand to be with a fatty like me...he doesn't get it....all I see is fat and baggy skin and it just grosses me out...I do have a before pic taped to my mirror, however, and that does help A LOT!
As far as the beating yourself up about it - I don't know what to say...I do the same thing. I have been going to a couselor that deal specifically with people that have had WLS and knows the mind games we have to go through, and that has helped quite a bit.

I'm early out so I shouldn't pipe in but I'm loosing so fast that I'm starting to sag and I knew this was a possibility beforehand and trying not to be to concerned with this issue I know myself well enough that I will
obsess about this.
Also I'm not real good with male attention so I'm super awkward when it comes my way, always been this way.
Here's a funny story that just happened recently; I was heading into a store and saw there was some younger guys (probably my older sons age,25) and I noticed the driver was looking at me and ready to say something out the window I was so uncomfortable I picked up the pace to get into the store that when I got to the door in a hurry the door got stuck on my shoe and I fumbled to not hit my nose on the door just to get inside... I had to think to myself what a dork I am.
I'm not sure this will inspire you to not be so hard on yourself but I hope at least you get a little chuckle, but when your having a hard day try not to fumble and hit your nose!
