It will take time for you to adapt to your new size. For most of us, when we look into the mirror we still see our fat selves. So take it slow so your brain can adapt to the new you. You self confidence will improve but it may dip when you begin to notice excess skin. Ironically, you will likewise still feel insecure about your body even though you may lose a massive amount of weight. Just realize that there is surgery to remove excess skin and that you don't have to live with it for the rest of your life.

I am getting my surgery April 4 and I know exactly what you are talking about. Same as you I have always been bigger since as far back as I can remember and I have always been pretty confident I didn't have alot of bad experiences because of my weight and am getting the surgery to get healthy as I am 31 now and things will start falling apart eventually if I don't change something. I am terrified that after this surgery and the weight loss I will hate my body which I don't right now. That's the part that scares me the most about this.

Welcome! I really didn't think I would....but I have struggled with my neck...lol. It's the one thing I can't cover...When it bugs me, and it is getting less often that it does, I focus on all the things I can do now...exercise, walk between tables in a restaurant without bumping into people, fly without a seatbelt extender....I could go on but I have to get ready for work I made the decision early on that I would love my new body for all the things it could do now...and for supporting me till I was ready to take care of it...not how it looks without clothes. I have an awesome husband of 31years who loved me heavier and now healthier and that definitely helps. It's all in how you frame it for yourself. Good luck!
