When did your brain catch up?

I’ve read posts here and there about waiting for your brain to “catch up” to your weight loss, and I’ve suddenly found myself in the position of realizing that mine definitely hasn’t.

I’ve lost almost 80lbs since last May and have a little over 10lbs left until my goal weight, and although I know logically that I have to look different, I still feel exactly the same when I look in the mirror. Even putting progress pictures next to each other is making me feel like I don’t look different enough now. I’m not sure what has changed, but I’m super frustrated that I feel so fat when my hard work has objectively been paying off.

So, fellow losers, how long did it take for your brain to catch up to your new body? Did any of you experience a stagnation in your perception of your own weight when you reached the last few pounds before your goal? I’ve been super satisfied with my progress up to this point, so it’s weird to suddenly find myself in this new headspace.
