I was at Medieval Times and walked past the mirror and didn't recognize myself for a minute. Even though I haven't had a huge weight loss recently, I'm down over 70 lbs and my body is constantly shifting and adjusting. It's hard to recognize this new version of you especially when you're stuck somewhere between being "fat" and not quite at your goal weight yet. When your body goes through changes from weight loss but your brain hasn't caught up we call that "ghost fat." Ever lost weight and still felt...the same? Or caught a glimpse of yourself and wondered who's staring back? Join me as I unpack the reality of not recognizing your ownbody after weight loss. This is the juicy stuff that diet culture or the "before and after" infomercials don't teach you.
