Did you have a hard time noticing your weight loss, my family and friends/coworkers can see it but I dont, I was 325 initially , 301 the day of surgery came home weighing 306, and today I am 265, but I still dont see it.
            Highest weight- 325  Day of surgery- 301  Post surgery -306

Totally normal. I still have a hard time seeing it and I'm a year and a half out and have been under goal for 9 months.

I was probably a good 50-75 lbs before I noticed a weight loss on me.

It took me losing 130 lbs to know that I lost weight.    It took me fitting into a size 6 petite dress coat to realize that how tiny I've become.

I am just now at -125 lbs and seeing / believing the weightloss.  Others have noticed long before me.  So, yes, normal.

Very common...we are our own worst critics!  However, there is also something called BDD - Body Dysmorphic Disorder - which you might want to Google and read up on....just to make sure the way you "see" yourself does not become unhealthy mentally and emotionally and venture down that path. ;)  Good luck - 60 pounds is super!

I agree.. we are our worst critics.  I went from a 22 to 14/16 with weigh****chers and never really saw the difference.  Everyone was telling me I looked great but I felt I looked the same. You've lost 60 lbs!  You definitely look different :).
