That is a difficult and understandable question. Most of it is repetition of viewing and accepting your new self. You have had many years of seeing your old self so be patient and give yourself time to recognize your new self and size. I battled with weight for years and after losing it I can say it took some time to see my new self as me and to fully believe that I will stay this size for years to come. It takes work but it is worth it!
