Congrats, Lisa! This is so awesome to hear -- and perfect timing for me. I just found out that I have "undergrown" the bra style I've been wearing for the last few months -- they don't make it in a size smaller than what I currently wear, and that won't fit soon. I never thought about looking in Victoria's Secret, as I've never come close to fitting in the sizes there. Sounds like I need to plan a trip!
And as for the driver's lisence, I just noticed the other day that it's my "old" photo. Would it be really vain to go get a replacement lisense just so I could get a new photo?!?
Best,
Laura

I never have the feeling FAT problem...In fact the opposite (even when I WAS supr morbidly Obese) I always felt and SAW myself as SKINNIER than I really was...(I guess one reason I never SAW myself as FAT, cause I always saw a THIN woman looking at me).
So now I just think of it as my body has caught up with my mind. I always saw myself as skinny and now I am skinny, again.
I am NO psychologist, but I have to say that those people who "see themselves as fat" even after they have lost weight, tended to be BIG their whole life, since childhood or puberty.
People like myself were rail THIN as a kids and in pubertry. I was skinny (only 120) as a young adult and didn't gain my weight until AFTER pregnancy and tons of medications for my autoimmune disease. Therefore I guess we see ourselves for what we are most of our lives??? Since I was thin/active/ healthy for 25 years, that is how I always saw myself...Even when I was 300 lbs and in a wheelchair.
Now at 150 and doing bodybuilding I am caught back up with my image of what I see myself as.
Does that make sense?
Warmly,
Jackie
