I have lost 45 pounds and am sitting pretty at 200 pounds. I feel amazing and I feel skinny even though clearly I am not.
Funny thing happened. I am a teacher at a high school and there was a student's desk wedged close to the wall with a small space for me to squeeze passed the student. I told the student as I was attempting to squeeze through that I am skinny, but not the skinny.... just then I realized that I was skinny enough to squeeze through the small space with no problem. I had to tell the student nevermind..
I think when you lose weight your mind still thinks of itself as being bigger. I have the same experience with new clothing. I stare at the size L workout pants and tell myself that there is no way that those would fit over my large framed rump, but then they fit. It feels good. I wonder when my mind will get use to being thinner, for the moment I will enjoy the surprises and push my way down into the "Onederlands"!
