Who is this girl?

I walk by mirrors and store windows and do a double take all the time. I look at recent pictures and am simply puzzled. Who is that girl? I see a petite blonde but in my mind I'm still that 250 lb Insecure girl. Anyone else having a hard time realizing their success? It's a crazy mind game.

Oh I can relate to this! I fear I have become terribly vain because I end up staring at my own reflection in unusual places!

Hah. Just today, after a year at goal, I got a glmpse in a mirror and thought "Who's that?"

And I say to this..."God bless you and congratulations because if ur staring at ur self in the mirror, ur happy with what you see". If you weren't happy, you would avoid those mirrors! Continued success you you!!

I have had that too previous. When I seen my toes for the first time looking down, that was the weirdest feeling ever.
