lol yeah my buddy always tells me not to pay attention to the numbers on the scale, Thats my biggest issue, I weigh myself twice a day almost everyday.... I have issues lol

I advocate this all the time, the scale is a huge mind F__K..
I was much too like that, 2-3 x a day.. It's a sick mind game we do to ourselves..

Honestly this last week when I took my most recent set of pictures was the first time in my life where I felt like I finally looked a little different than other people. Of course that lasted all of 30 seconds. I now feel small, weak, and pathetic. I'm pushing myself through this because I always finish what I start. Even at 270lbs I felt like I looked no better than the average person. If anything I was self conscious and thought I was fat.

Even when I weighed about 300lbs I would look at guys and think they were bigger than me. Just about everyone that does this suffers from some form of body dysmorphic syndrome. The funny thing is now at almost 270lbs and 5'9 I still do the same thing. I am used to people staring, but I don't see myself the same as they do. It is the way we are wired and it is what really pushes people like us I firmly believe.

Though I certainly suffer from the same thing, I find it amazing when guys as big as you suffer it. You're clearly much, much bigger than I am. You have 60 lbs on me. But I suppose when we see ourselves in the mirror, we have that perception that always seems to pervade our consciousness. I always feel like I'm that skinny kid that weighs 130 lbs even though I know that's not my weight.

Thats exactly what I see when I look in the mirror.

This is why I'll go weeks without weighing myself. I will weigh myself one week and weigh X amount and as far as I'm concerned, I still weigh that until the next time I weigh myself which will be a couple weeks down the road
