UNEDITED, honest pics of me :)

Louise1247

Whilst I was being vain trying on stuff, my bf took a few sneaky pics so i thought Id throw them together as I cannot ‘pose‘ to make myself look ‘better‘ for pics. Some of them I am posing, but thats cus i wanted some pics taken
While changing outfits he snapped a few extras!

This is a monokini I bought ages ago, I tried it on just to see the comparison of how I used to look compared to now. It sorta fits, but I wouldn’t wear it out. Some of the pics are fowl


This is my old, size 10 bikini, again just tried it on. It is still tight of course, considering i am a size 14!


These show my belly as it is right now, stretch marks and all! Im happy with it for now, but still a bit to go yet!


These show my markings clearly! Its just nice to have pics to refer to and look back on in the future
(10.12 stones)

The belly button scar is from a piercing that sunk into my skin!


Would you share yours???

I won't... but is your tattoo on pinterest somehow? I LOVE it and I think I might have pinned it at some point!

I can't at the moment because I don't have any way of transfering pics from my phone to the web while I'm at work. However, I did the same thing 2 days ago - taking some honest and unflattering pics of myself to give me a baseline to compare against for the changes I'm hoping to make. I'll try to remember to post them when I get home. I figure if you've got the courage to post them, I can muster the courage as well.

Fantastic!! It is really encouraging, you're right. Every angle explored, and there is no denying that it is how you look

I dont even have a two piece. I'm the smallest I've ever been now & I would be way 2 embarrassed of my body. I hate it. But I can post picks you've seen b4. & I'm gonna run to take some of the side & at an angle.





Yuck! My love handles are too big and my belly sticks out too far. Curse my small frame! & my old love 4 bad food!
the 1 thing I'm startin to like ab my body is my arms.
Right arm

Left arm


Was this too many pics? lol I do have stretch marks, all over my stomach, sides, some on my breasts, under my arms, triceps area & inner thighs.

I am within 7-8 lbs of my pre-kids weight, but my tummy looks just like both of yours. It is encouraging to see that many (most!) women, have non-perfect tummies. I also have tons of stretch marks. The funny thing for me is that from the front my waist is getting smaller, but from the side, it pooches way out. I guess that is just bc my abs were destroyed during pg?

Anyway, thanks for the pics! I too love seeing honest pics. Another site to check out, if anyone else reading is thread is dealing with post baby body stuff like i am, is theshapeofamother.com. I found it helpful in being more accepting of my body.

I'm having the same prob. From the front, it looks like my belly area is shrinking but from the side it still sticks out. I really hate that. I hope it goes away eventually.

SiempreBella

love that tats

MzBeckie

awesome before/current pics. You are all so brave for sharing them. I'm not that brave yet but I hope to be soon. I have lost 50 lbs so far but i still feel like I'm at my beginning weight.
