tired of hiding in the back of family pics

Embarrassed of my weight, I always hide behind a family member in family photos, I don't want to feel like that anymore!!! It is time for this change and I'm very much ready. I'm done with being embarrassed.

With my oldest son's upcoming High School Graduation in June 2014, this has sparked this journey into reality for me. I'm excited and ready to do this!!! And I look forward to being in a picture with my son, (right next to him, not in the back) at his graduation!

Hello. I relate to your post completely! I have hated having my picture taken for the past couple of years. In part due to unexplained hair loss, but mostly due to my weight. My son will graduate in 2015. I was thinking about 'cheating' today, but your comment made me remember why I want to do this - Thanks!

Hi, I'm very excited for you! You have a huge reason why you want to lose weight and you have set a date. A goal with out a date is just wish. I'm excited to see your journey and get inspired to keep reaching my goal.

good for you for taking the steps!

(in my family, my nieces/nephews know that they stand in front of mommy/aunties "to hid e the tummies". except sister 1 lost her tummy, sister 2 is on the way to losing it and sister three -that would be - is also on the way!)

I was doing the same for the past several years! I have finally reached a point where I don't mind being in the photo. You can do it!!!! Feel free to add me. I was away from logging for a bit and have put on some extra pounds, and need to get back on track! I welcome all requests.
