Not recognizing myself.
I felt the most beautiful I’ve ever been while I was pregnant. I was bullied most of my life for the way I look and I’ve never felt confident about myself in the slightest. I’ve always felt great about who I am, but just not the way I look. But when I was pregnant I felt beautiful all the time.. I finally felt on the outside the way I felt inside. Anyways, I had my daughter three weeks ago and everytime I look in the mirror I don’t recognize myself anymore. I’ve never been “thin” never under 200 lbs in years. Every single time I walk by the mirror I do not recognize me.. and I don’t feel beautiful anymore. I have been losing weight like crazy since my c-section and I feel like I’m losing who I was. Does this sound crazy? Do I even make sense? My husband tells me I look great and that he’s proud of my body because of everything it’s doing for our daughter.. but I don’t like the way I look. I do struggle with postpartum depression so I don’t know if this is part of it..
