"Face" yourself! (pics)

ruggedBear

After a couple of months of not making much progress because I consciously took a break after being on MPF for more than a year, I REALLY needed a reminder of how far I've come and a big mental shove to get myself to the final goal this year. So I collected a series of face shots for inspiration - please post yours too! I could use some more motivation!

You look amazing! I just noticed how much face fat I lost this past year the other day... so I'll share too.

I posted a topic about my own weight loss success, but here are some of the more dramatic face shots:

WOWWWWWW!!!!
How long did it take you? How did you do it? Your arms, among every thing else, look SO THIN. Your tummy looks so flat. I see no loose skin. If you don't mind, I'd like some pointers and tips..... I want to be able to wear sleeveless tops or dresses when I get to goal, but I have always hated my huge, ugly, flabby arms....

I can't believe the amazing transformations! Thank you all for posting!

Someone just posted the first full body picture I have seen of myself in quite a while (the old me) on FB and now I'm thinking I finally have a real 'before' picture. I'm going to have to nut up and take a full body pic today and see what that reveals - anyone else scared to do that?

You look spectacular! I know there's no secret to the loose skin thing, and I am so glad to see that it doesn't happen to everyone. For me, it's the main reason I think I have a hard time accepting my progress. I've got all the dreaded loose skin (at age 44, with two kids and over 20 years of being over 200 lbs, I am not surprised) and it makes me feel like I'm still carrying way too much fat around. Here's to hoping that another year of hard work and patience will pay off to some degree and whatever happens after that will just have to be accepted.

The difference in your face is very dramatic - the way your eyes are so open and expressive now really changes your whole vibe! Don't ever hide behind glasses! :laugh:
