    Personally, I love my body just the way it is - strong and healthy. The only things that are not "ideal" for me are my stretch marks and the loose skin, but that is the price I have to pay for being obese for years (although the skin thing might improve over time).
    I don't look like a supermodel, and I'll keep working on getting stronger, but I'm proud of my body the way it is - my curves and my muscles.
    I worked WAY too hard not to be happy with how I ended up (56% body fat to 23% body fat)

    I went from this (51" Chest / 45.5" Waist / 54" Hips):

    to this (38" Chest / 27" Waist / 37" Hips):

    So do I look like a model or even like what most people would aspire to?
    No.
    But I do look like a fit, healthy version of myself. That's pretty ideal to me.

    You are the person on MFP that most inspires me.
    That is probably the sweetest thing someone has ever told me! I hope that people are encouraged to learn to love their bodies and to aspire to improve their health and fitness but not to feel discouraged if they never look like they belong on a magazine cover. HEALTH is what matters most.

    Muscles, but slightly higher body fat than fitness competitors.

    Who is this?? LOVE her body type..

    Jaime Koeppe. Apparently she was an amateur body builder, won some contest with WWE. BUT don't google image search her at work. She apparently has a lot of naked photos out there too....

    I have big booty and muscular build. I think this would be more like I would turn out in an ideal world.

    I'm a photographer....does anyone else see that the sides of her stomach have been photoshopped?... :ohwell:

    I did notice that!!! I think she would actually look better without the photshop

    She's pretty hot (and currently who my husband seems to love)

    paula-patton-complex-5.jpeg

    HOT DAMN she's hot!!!

    Is that Paula Patton???

    If so, I don't have her *kitten* but her body is similar to mine.. I think. She doesn't have the big boobs but she's curvy with hips and legs like me. She also has broad shoulders which I think I have.

    Hmm I should keep this pic.


    It is Paula. I think her body is similar in shape to mine too but I am taller. I would love to get here! This is the cover of Complex this month.

    Yeah, I think they're both not so bad. And, I don't know you and all, but I'm going to go out on a limb and say that Fedor or Dan (when those photos were taken) were in pretty decent shape. Lastly, this may shock you, but not all women want roided up looking guys. Plus, I'd be happy just looking big, strong, and a little less fat than I've got on me now.

    ^^You would say this..REALLY? Your rude man! That is what chicago_dad likes and thats his ideal not yours. Just because its not your ideal doesnt mean you have to make negative comments like this as that is just uncalled for. We are all on a weight loss fitness site and the majority of us are over weight I guess we are all "porked out" to you. I am supprised you have friends here. Whats wrong with you?

    My first post, hopefully I do it right!

    23151385554043531_qvhLVpeE_f.jpg

    I don't know who this is (I found it on Pinterest) but that's my current inspiration. She's not super skinny, but she's definitely not fat. She has beautiful curves, and a bit of definition.
    I don't think a size 2, or a 6 pack, is a realistic goal for me, and I'm not even sure I'd chose that for myself even if I could pick any body I wanted.
    I was always curious as well! http://www.facebook.com/pages/Alicia-Victoria-Modeling/178244812228784
    There ya go!

    This is the kind of body I'd die for....Curvy and womanly : )

    I'm totally with you on this one! While I'm not a fan of Kim as a person, I definitely have a "Kardashian butt"! I'd love to look like her after she lost weight and got fit! Got a ways to go though!
