Strange title, I know. Every morning when I look in the mirror to get ready I am pretty happy with the way I look. Of course I can't wait to get to my goal weight but I don't think I look fat or anything. I noticed the other day however, when I saw a photo of myself and was very unhappy that something was not adding up. Is what I am seeing the mirror or the photo reality? I'm not sure. I see fat in the photo and looking good in the mirror, does anyone else experience this? It seems strange to me.
Also, I made a fill appointment for mid March! Yay, the last time I went was in November. I am not going to get anymore than .1cc as I'd like to slowly get back to my 7.8 before I had to get some taken out. I'm going on a Cruise at the end of May again this year so I don't want to do anything too aggressive fill wise before I go. I'll probably make another appointment to go after my cruise. Maybe I won't need it though, I'm trying to to do better but I really struggle with bad habits. Oh 2012, the year of breaking bad habits. =)

I see myself differently when I look in the mirror, I hate pictures of myself I think I look horrible!
I hope someday that will change.
You are beautiful you look utterly amazing!
I completely understand this. There are times I feel I look amazing then I see a picture of myself the same day and I wonder what happened. For the record the pictures I've seen of you look incredible. I think our inner idea of self just needs to catch up to the reality.
I see different things as well. I think the reason for this is, in the mirror I see all the hard work that I do everyday and in the picture I see what I was even if the picture was taken the day before. We have to remember that we change everyday no matter how small. Rome was built in a day, but it did change everyday.
BTW you look awesome!
I had this problem big-time before surgery - I realized that I was big but was always shocked when I saw a picture of myself because I never saw myself as "that big" in the mirror. Now that I've lost weight, the two images are getting closer but I still see myself as thinner when I look in the mirror...
Bad habits are so difficult to break...keep trying though.
I totally hear you. I have the same issues. Even when I was thin. I wrote a similar blog post a bit ago http://robinwinegirl.blogspot.com/2011/09/my-minds-eye.html. Remember that you have put in ALOT of hard work and you should be proud of it.
You look fantastic
