Default I feel so Fat today

I just feel icky today. I looked in the mirror and saw a fat woman looking back at me. Why do we have those days when we feel huge and others when we feel we look like Catherine Zeta-Jones????? Jeez. I'm depressed. I'm holding steady at 218 and today is my three month anniversary. I feel like I am so far behind everyone else. I can't get motivated to exercise. HELP SOMEONE HELP ME!

Repeat after me-I LOOK GREAT TODAY! I HAVE COME ALONG WAY FROM WHERE I STARTED! I WILL SUCCEED! You are doing great! We all have these days I guess it is just the nature of wls. I wish I knew for sure what the cause was. I'm thinner now than I have ever been and I looked in the mirror yesterday and told my hubby that I looked sooo fat and he looked at me like I was nuts! I'm swollen from the TT and I just felt huge. It happens somedays! Just think-Tomorrow will be a much better day!

Everyone is allowed a down day as long as you try to get back up in the saddle. You are still in the honeymoon phase. Take advantage and use it up. You are doing great so whatever it is that you do, keep doing it!!!

Hi there,

Look donot worry I bet if you started to take and record your measurments
you will see that you are losing inchs too.
I have been at 215 for 2 months now but I am still getting into smaller clothes all the time so just hang in there. Question how often do you weight your self ? Do not over do it just follow the plan and every thing will be great.
And you are doing great.

You are having awesome success! I do understand what you mean. I started a thread almost identical to this probably right around 3 months also.......there must be something to it with our mind, body, and hormones. Somedays I still feel like that, but not as often and just not quite as icky feeling. Just keep looking at your clothes..........old pics help too.
