Am I alone?

....as some of you know....the line..."you have such a pretty face, you should lose weight"....has done more damage to me then good....so far in my pics i only put facial shots....i know that to see before and after i need to take a full length shot........has anyone before MFP had trouble with posting full body pics of themselves?

    At least you have a pretty face. All I get is "you have an ugly face, fatso."

    I didn't have any pics up for the longest time, but then I just genuinely quit giving a **** and threw some up for the hell of it. I'm still a tank *kitten*, AND ugly in the face, but there are plenty of pictures of me in nothing but shorts floating around here.

    I get that all the time. My face just doesn't match the rest of my body. A lot of people are shocked when they see the rest of me, because they weren't expecting me to be so "big." When they say that, they scramble to add "oh you're so much taller than I was expecting" but I know that my weight is a big part of it. I'm just a really big girl.

    You got to roll with what God/Goddess/Random Deity/Your Parents gave ya :-) I've always thought I was ugly, that's why you kill them with a big smile and a bit of a Missouri country boy charm :-D.

    Everyone has things that are attractive about them. Plus this site is about the journey!

    You look like a friendly Mr. Clean, and chicks dig Mr. Clean... Not just because he can get their kitchens sparkling either!

    Usually I get nice body shame about the face!!! Or the one I hate most is 'nice *kitten*'

    No amount of weight loss will make me pretty!

    I have to get by on sparkling personality!!

    Yes, I've been very hesitant to take body shots.

    I just saw your bikini pic, sure you do (Shakes head no...).. I don't believe you have your age right on MFP.. no way you are that old!

    I have serious self confidence issues with my face actually. I don't mind posting full bodied shots here because it helps me feel motivated. Even though I'm overweight, my body is strong and I have respect for it. It's that respect that makes me want to make it better and not be embarrassed by it.

    my boyfriend loves me the way i am now...and it is a health issue....its nice to know there are other guys like my bf that actually LOOK at the inside of women...not just the outter layer.....
