  2. Even though I have reached my surgeon's goal weight (and passed it) I still don't recognize myself in the mirror. I feel like I am looking at a stranger. I haven't been this weight since I came home from the desert in 1991.

      In time, I suspect and hope you'll get used to it. I have the opposite problem, I look at myself now (pre-op) and don't recognize this overweight lady. In my head I'm still a fit, normal weight girl. I even think I can squeeze through small places and booths, etc. of which I do. LOL When I'm walking through a store and pass by a wall length mirror/column, it just baffles me that I'm overweight....or correct term, obese. So, with you, I hope you will recognize yourself for who you are NOW. The past is over. You are a new creation....run with it. :)

      I didn't recognise myself at my heavy weight. 40lbs down, and it is like seeing an old friend in the mirror. Now, if I ever get close to goal (another 100lbs), not sure what will happen!
