    Getting it going again. I love my "average sized" body :-) I'm not quite where I want to be yet but I'm no longer where I used to be.

    Open the image in Paint, hit "resize", change it from 100% to about 20%, then re-upload to imgur.

    You can resize on imgur, too. There's an option to edit photos, and then resize. sizes of around 400x400 or so tend to work well for MFP forums.

    yes, I need this so so much right now! I've always been obsessive about my body, and used to go to great lengths for it to look 'perfect'. (starving, over exercising, unhealthy relationship with food, ect..) however now I'm trying to embrace my body and be content with it at an average state. There are so many things that I'm still self conscious of, especially my big thighs and hips, however I'm learning that even with it's imperfections I'm healthy and equally as beautiful as I was before. Might I add that all the other ladies posting on this thread are very beautiful and lovely as well! <3
