I hear what everyone is saying but I think the old saying is true. You must love yourself in order for someone else to love you. I am 14 months out and have lost about 140lbs. I never imagined that my body would look this horrible. I can't stand looking in the mirror and really have not enjoyed my weight loss success because of the way I look now. I am going to give it another 6 months and then get a plastics consult. I don't think this weight loss will be a success in my mind until I look in the mirror and don't see a fat person anymore. I am very lucky that I have a husband that loves me for who I am even though I hate what I look like. He is proud of me for loosing the weight and I just try and feed off of that for now and try to be more positive.
