You've had a self image for a long time that IS what you saw in the mirror. You must convince your brain that you are no longer overweight. It may sound silly, but look in the mirror every day, several times a day, and tell yourself,"I look great. I feel great. I'm healthy." It's a bit of self-hypnosis that will help you like the person you are& have become. You are successful. I wish you HEALTH!!!
