Why do I see the old me ?

I just had this conversation with my husband last night. It's like I either can't accept that i look different because i still do not see "perfection" in my eyes OR I had a really distorted perception of myself when I was bigger..thinking that i was really smaller. I have found it more difficult now and feel uncomfortable when people comment on my weightloss too. Dont get me wrong, the compliments are really great but I do not like the attention at all.

Yes, this happens to me all of the time. I put on a tight pair of size 6 jeans and they fit (and very well from what others told me) but in my mind, I kept thinking about all the stares I would get for being so fat in such tight pants! lol total mind f***

I have a similar thing at 90 pounds gone.  If someone points out specifics, I can see that specific things have changed.  Like my neck looks longer!  But if I'm just looking at myself in a mirror?  I don't know.  I'm still me.  It's so... complicated. 

Don't I know it, the same for me.  It does feel good when people notice. I hope one day I will look into a mirror or see a pic and say WOW what a difference !
