I forget all the time i've lost weight and that i'm skinny now.
a couple of days ago while i was out shopping around.. i was in the clothing area and walked pass a mirror and i had to take one step back and re-look at myself in the mirror. I was like "dang! that's ME!?" lol I lost 100lbs so it's a big noticeable difference... but even though I "KNOW" i am skinny now ( 5'8" and 150lbs ) i still always forget and i even feel the same kind of.. i'm a super shy person and one of the reasons i'm shy was because i used to be big but now i'm not but i stll feel like when people look at me that's who they see..the fat me.. not the skinny me... it's weird...and i wonder if that's normal?

im 5'2 and used to be 153 lbs 3 yrs ago. 
i got sick with H-pylori and went down to 110 lbs
. im back up to 130, but still just barely used to the new weight. so, yes i sometimes do forget.

wow...you actually forget you have lost weight huh....thats cool....
well it happened with me once.... i wasnt paying much attention to my weight and figure at that time..... and mind you i am or never was on the skinny side ever....
but i did one day realise that i had lost good amount of weight and realised a lot later cos i never used to really bother to look at my self in the mirror.....
now that i have started looking in the mirror ...... i realise that i am putting on more and more weight rather than losing weight..... :(
