You look FREAKING AMAZING!
AMAZING! I am 5 ft 7 and 165 lbs and have a flabby tummy and a huge muffin top. YOU on the other hand have a cute midsection, an amazing curve to your waist, proportional top to bottom...JEALOUS but happy for you.
Maybe part of what you are experiencing is the reality vs the "fantasy you" that exists in your head as it does in ALL our heads especially at the beginning of the program? I dunno -- you look great. Keep at it. Hit the weights if you feel the need to tone up, wait a year for things to tighten up, and every day look at yourself JUST LOOK and find one thing to admire. It isn't like you'll be struggling to find something nice!
Seriously, you look great and some adjustment period is required. You aren't alone in that, for sure!!!

I am only about 15 pounds overweight, and it sure doesn't look like it. I can't stand it- this is what I expected my body to look like at 190 or 200, but not 160. I'm only about 15 pounds away from goal, and now it seems like I'm just going to have to keep going and going. Am I ever going to be a normal size?

Is there something wrong with me that I still look like this at this weight?

Has anyone else had this experience?


Wow you look wonderful! Such a huge weight loss with no extra skin, that's admirable, I hope to look as good as you. Very lucky.

However! I know what you mean about not being satisfied or feeling fat still. I once lost a lot of weight, thought I was still fat and then gave up, resulting in how I look today. My advice is please try to enjoy and see the good in how you look
