What real women look like

I stumbled upon this website and found it super helpful. I don't know about you, but I don't have a good sense of what I actually look like after losing 30lbs, or what I might look like when I lose 20 more.
It's refreshing to see all the different shapes and sizes of all these beautiful women!
I also think it would be fun to submit your own photo and help the cause.

    I've browsed that site a few times, and honestly, it make me feel like I look worse than I think I do :( wasn't particularly motivational for me!

    Thanks. :)

    I looked at women my height and weight and can't believe it. They look so great, yet, I see nothing similar when I look at myself.
    Then again, I'm sure that's because of the extra skin I need removed.
  • Thanks! Now I think I might need a little lower goal weight to get my tummy as flat as I want it. Nice share =)

    I don't really like that site. I think some people in my weight/height category lied. Because they look a lot heavier than they claim.

    this site is awesome. it makes you see what you really look like. we always see what we think we look like. to compare for the pure reason to realize how great we look is a wonderful thing :)

    I'm wondering if it really has more to do with muscle. I put in 5 lbs more than I weigh now and saw someone who was about like I think I look. I put in my goal weight, which for me may be too little and there was someone who looked like me now. I think there is probably a lot of variation in frame and muscle that can really change what you look like. I figure I'll know when I get there.
