Post weight loss blues?

I’m 20lbs away from my ultimate goal weight and I lost a total of 112lbs. Being so close to the “end” has left me with complicated feelings that I’m struggling to unpack.

Two things that are keeping me from fully celebrating my win:

  1. My face doesn’t look how I thought it would. I can’t recognize myself and it’s a slap in the face that I felt prettier when I was bigger.

  2. I fully committed to my health and weight loss journey this entire year. I worked hard, went to the gym, ate right, etc. My body feels great, and my health is the best it’s been in years. BUT. Now what? I know maintenance will be a thing and I won’t stop working out. And I can just pick another thing to focus on like strength training, but it’s not the same and now that I’ve reached this goal that felt impossible, I feel almost empty? Like I’m losing my purpose (I’m kind of exaggerating but you know what I mean).

Has anyone else felt this way? I’m not necessarily looking for advice, and more so looking for those that have felt the same.
