Unflattering photos

sweetpotatofry

You know how some friends will accidentally take some really unflattering photos of you and post them on Facebook for the whole world to see? Back in February I had a few photos taken of me that made me just go, "Wow. I look /terrible/ :frown: " Well, today I was out with a few friends again and when it came to picture-taking, I thought, "Oh no, this angle feels really familiar..." but we were all having fun, and what's a few ugly photos to commemorate a good time, right?

Just a while ago my friend put up the photos on FB and ... I was surprised at how they didn't actually look horrendous. I mean, compared to six months ago!

Similar angle, with a difference of 10 pounds:



Still a lot to work on, but an improvement!

Aww! Those are both good photos but you can really see a difference in your face! Keep up the hard work!

And hey. It's never "just" 10 pounds.

A pound off, whether it's 1, 10, 15, 30, 60, 100 or whatever, is something to be proud of!

I cannot believe that's only a 10 lb difference!! Such an obvious change, your face looks so slim in the second picture, congratulations!

I love seeing before and after face shots. I never think of my face changing when I think of weight loss but I notice other ppls faces always look so much prettier in their after shots! So thanks for this

You have beautiful eyes and a smile that shine in both photos and really you look great in both. So, with that fact said... you are looking awesome in that second photo and I can see why you'd be stoked!

Congrats!!! Big difference; you look nice in both but wow!!! It looks like you lost more than 10 lbs.

Thanks for all the kind words, everyone! I've always been cursed with a chubby/round face (which my friend lovingly dubs "moon face") and cheeks that everyone and their mother feel the need to pinch :grumble: so it's encouraging to see a slight slimming down in that area :happy:

You look great in both pics but that ten pounds has really made a difference with your face, as it's so much slimmer now. Congrats! :flowerforyou:

I can really tell a big difference!

I have a "no posting pics without my approval" lock on my facebook for this very reason. I guess they don't see what I see!

Facebook's privacy settings read like Latin to me -- they're so hard to figure out! I have my photos set on private but mutual friends can still see them in the original album. :sad:

Thanks everyone for the supportive comments!
