I’ve lost 20kgs in the last year, I’ve got another 10kgs or so to go but due to travel and other commitments I’ve been on a bit of a break for around five weeks.
I’ve been maintaining - but what’s interesting is how my own self image has changed. When I got to 20kgs down I was really impressed with my achievement - I’d never lost this much before! I loved how much smaller I looked etc.
But a few weeks of maintaining and it’s like my brain has made this my new normal. I’m not particularly excited by how I look, and now all I can see is that I still have a fair bit to lose. I don’t hate how I look, but I’m not like ‘wow I don’t recognise myself’.
Also I was checking out some old photos of me over a year ago and something else shifted - I can’t believe how big I looked! That was just me for most of my life so up until recently, in my head, that was just me.
It’s so interesting what weight loss does to the brain!
