All the fat...

Does any other post-op out there sometimes still look at themselves in the mirror, or even just look down at themselves and see fat? See the person that they used to be? I've lost 107# since April. And 137# overall. That's nothing to be ashamed of. And I'm looking fabulous compared to where I used to be. But I can't always see it...

Take today for example. I was texting a friend on my lunch break (she's the amazing woman from The RNY Journey that I mentioned before), and I came to the realization that if my boobs did not start shrinking, that I would have to have a breast reduction. They're finally starting to get in my way. -.- So, to prove my point, I sent her this pic:

And then I was looking at the pic, and I'm like... there's no way that I look that thin in real life... it's just the angle of the camera... Asked another friend, and she said, nope. Not the camera angle. That's how thin I look. O.O You could have knocked me over with a feather.

Now, don't get me wrong. There are some days that I look at myself, and I think about how good I'm looking, and I feel confident... sexy even. But... yeah. Other days, it's a struggle... I was just curious if this is a common thing, or if it's something unique to me. I'd love to hear from not just post-ops, but anyone with dramatic weight loss. I know that the body part of our transformations is just part of it. There's a lot of head stuff to work on too. :/
