What is wrong with my new attitude

Although few admit it, I think everyone goes through this mental process in varying degrees.  I personally didn't realize I was as big as I was when I started so as I was losing, I'd have to ask a few trusted confidantes if I was as big as X.....

To this day I still scan a room to see where I fit into the body size picture.  I don't know why, I just do it.  What I try very hard to never do is to be judgemental....I do not know each person's story, and I cannot control their life choices.  I have to remember that each person's choices are their own and are NONE OF MY BUSINESS.

I speak very candidly and openly IF I'M ASKED about my surgery/lifestyle changes.  But if I'm not asked, I rarely bring it up.

I'd say as long as you aren't being Ms. Haughty Pants then you've got nothing to worry aboutlaugh

I hate to admit I do this too. I don't think less of people when I look at them it is shame towards myself and where I was. I don't know about you guys but I still feel like that girl I was 120lbs ago. I know I have lost weight, the scale number is lower and all but I still feel the same inside if that makes sense. I feel like part of it is also fear of becoming the size I was again, so I dont mean to look down on other people but unfortunately sometimes I do.

I did it to early out.  Not judging others, trying to figure out who I compared to size wise.  I don't think it's anything to be ashamed of.....it's not like you are making fun of them in any way but coming to grips of the changes you have/are facing.

I took this as you judging others when you said you think "oh gosh, she is big!". If you are comparing yourself to others to figure out where you are, thats different. But I read it as you are looking at people and are shocked by their weight. I still dont think its ever okay to say to a friend about someone else "gosh, she is big!".
