It is getting very confusing. I really believe I am fat some days. But then when I don't see the fat, I tell myself there's no way I could have lost that much weight in such a short amount of time.
Mirrors lie.
Can anyone else relate to this?

yes, i can relate to this. when i do look in a mirror, i try to tell myself positive things, not negative.
i never can make myself believe it when people say i'm thin, or skinny.
i got brave enough to actually ask a good friend of mine whether she thinks i'm thin, because i really wanted to know if others see me the way i do. she knows i have a problem with eating, and is very supportive.
she laughed and said i was super skinny. i also came right out and asked my dr. and psychiatrist, not if they think i'm FAT, which i have done, but whether they think i'm THIN. i think their judgment is better than mine, so it's something to remember when i think otherwise.
