Mental block

by kennigriggs on 01-26-2016 at 10:34 AM
I am down to 188. I bought jeans that are not plus size. I can see the smaller me in pictures, why do I still see the "fat" me in the mirror? I would post photos but they are all bra/panty pics and not pretty! Anyone else have this problem? My heaviest weight was 250. Was 240 before surgery. Very frustrated with myself. I feel that my progress is too slow, even though I know it isn't. I'm almost 3 months out and down 52 pounds. What is wrong with the mental me???!!!!

It's really been slow progress.

My daughter and I are going to attempt a walk around the neighborhood in the morning. I am having trouble getting in enough fluids because it still hurts when I swallow, but
