85 lbs gone...
but I really don't see a difference in the mirror. I know that there have been physical changes, I can 'see' them in the way my clothes fit and in the tape measurements of my body. I can also see it in my face in certain photos. But when I look in the mirror... I'm still a nearly 400 lb Hubba Bubba Chubba. I think it's going to take a while for my self image to catch up with the scale.

The weight is only physical...the psychological harm we do ourselves takes much longer to repair. I think losing weight and looking in the mirror is the same as gaining it and looking in the mirror. You don't really notice putting it on after a while. Your mind just adapts to it until one day you see a picture and think...that's not me. It will come together. I know I'm proud of the journey you're taking!! Your devotion to it is inspirational!!!!
