Default Starting to See Change in the Mirror

Okay, I am finally after 95lbs starting to see a change in the mirror, but hold the phone...... Is it my imagination or does my head look to big for my body now... My kids just laughed at me, but I swear my head looks to big now.... Any one else seeing crazy stuff like this too?

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

You look fabulous girl...I had someone who told me my eyes had gotten bigger....UMMMM NO...they are the same size they always were LOL!!!

Isn't it funny what we see now? Hubby took a pic of me the other day..and I thought I looked REALLY OLD?!?!? Top that off with the 4 people (who did't know anyone else had said it) who told me DO NOT LOSE ANYMORE or I'll start to look bad...what do we do with that?

I think you look fantastic and you need to post LOTS of new pics!

I think it is in our minds, cause I swear my head is not only too big, it got square! I swear the shape of my face was always heart shaped, now I think it looks square, my hub said it looks the same as before but I dont see it, I see square????

Absolutely, our heads are growing, and our eyes, soon we'll look like ET - LOL!

Seriously, b4 when I lost down to 145 I thought I looked like some sort of weird bird coz my neck got so long and my nose looked like a beak!

This time, I notice my eyes look more prominent (not necessarily a good thing - Kath you have beautiful eyes) and my lips look larger to me. Also, I've always had a certain shape, hourglass, if you will, but large sized. Now, my hourglass isnt shaped right!!!! The top is smaller and my waist isnt much smaller than my hips where I've lost the most inches (>12). I was feeling pretty spunky this morning when I got ready for work, so I asked DS to take my picture, thinking I would update my pix here, but the pic didn't look like I thought I looked (???) anyway - it's def an adjustment!
