Default when you dream now what size are you?

yes okay, another strange question, did you expect anything else?

i noticed in my dreams, i am still THAT larger person. I still have THAT face, those rolls and a heavy walk in my dreams.....even last night, a sex dream (been having some of those more now) and it wasnt with my hubby ...anyway thats a different thread

i have yet to have a dream in it with me as the size i am.

so my questions to all you post-opers, when you dream, what size are you in your dream?

This probably means I'm a lunatic, but I've never been fat in my dreams. I have always been a normal size in my dreams. Maybe because I was 30 before becoming MO??? I don't know...

Same here, infact, in my dreams I look like Antonio Banderas.

Default So that was you, Irving!

Funny! I dream about Antonio Banderas on occasion...

Carrie, I think you're right on schedule. In my dreams, I was still heavy until more than a year had gone by, then for a few months, in my dreams I had skin dripping off me, like my batwings were dragging the ground behind me. My latest dreams have been too dark to repeat, no consciousness of a body at all... so the answer is, it all takes time. I have faith that, like Marie, I'll be in this body in my dreams before it's all said and done.
