today, just once accept yourself as is

right this very moment, you are who you are

every pound

every inch is you

i myself have a hard time dealing with looking in the mirror as i hate who i see, the size, the girth.

i feel the outside world is judging me for that appearance and judging me because i am obese/fat/overweight

seems that the ones who need to accept ourselves the most is ourselves.

Remember we all are unique.

There's not one person like us.

No one has your fingerprints,

only you.

Isn't that amazing, all the people in the world, present or past, and you are different.

That's what makes us SPECIAL

Love your uniqueness!

I am special!

Thats why you have to like what you have on the inside.

I don't think we'll ever look in a mirror and totally love what we see. I just look this morning and said to myself "yep, your face is getting thinner, but now you need a facelift, which isn't going to happen".

I also know I will not like looking at my saggy skin, but I'll like covering that up.

Can't cover up my face. LOL

Point is, I will never be a 10, but I love who I am! I AM SPECIAL!

That day is closer than you imagine.

One day I looked in the mirror and smiled, I thought wow I have really done this and I look good.

Trust me, it will happen!

NC is one of my favorite vacation spots. It would not hurt me in the least to come up there and kick ass.

I remember being 16yo and 122 and thinking I was so fat and going on a strick diet. Now 40 yrs later, the rest of the story.....

Amen, my selfesteem issues led me into an abusive relationship for 8 years. I had to learn to love myslef more than I loved him and to love my children more than I loved myself. No amoumt of weight loss can teach us this lesson. Its time to get butt naked, stand in the mirror (open your eyes ;) ) and say this is me!!!

And I don't have far to come! It takes a long time to see yourself differently. Even now at times I see myself still at 256! Look for NSVs. Like getting into and out of the car, a booth in a restaurant. squeezing through spaces I did not think I would fit!

You are doing great girl!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?
