It took photographs of me to see how I let myself go, the tight clothes and lack of energy didn't clue me in, I just fooled myself, but photographs...wow. Now when I look at photographs I can hardly dare to believe it's me. Still working on that tricky body image thing.

One of the best things on this site for me is seeing my friends grow confidence. To see them loving themselves. To love the beautifully flawed people they are. The photographs tell me a story, doesn't matter to me where you are, just the fact that you are moving forward and sharing your success. I have some friends who at first wouldn't even post a pic, to now proudly coming out of their shell and showing their progress. Being so brave and amazing. This growing confidence is sexy as heck to me.

Find something you love about yourself and post a pic. For the prudes on here, don't assume these pics are for attention, sometimes it's just the fact that all of our hard work has finally paid off. The transformation is showing and by sharing, others are inspired and motivated to keep going.

Thank you my loves.

:heart:, Sass

    What a lovely post. I'm with you - my favourite thing about 'after' shots is not necesarily the shrinkage, but how much happier and confident people seem to look. It's a joy to behold.

    Ahh, so true. Seeing my friend's progress makes me want to join them up there.

    The OP reminds me of a Mark Twain quote I love:

    “Keep away from those who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great make you believe that you too can become great.”

    Chuck's inspirational addition to this thread has definitely strengthened my resolve to get off my butt and kick *kitten* tonight.


    Thanks!

    I'm still working my tail off to get more confident. when I finally started measuring things it helped a lot because the weight didn't budge for a while.

    I love this so much! I can't figure out how to post pics from the iPad, cause it hates me, but I'll change my profile pic to my before/after. I'm proud of myself, but still have work to do. The "after" is from June. Sill making changes and getting more fit. Hopefully I'll be able to put up a new "after" soon!!

    Eta - I changed my mind. This is a more recent pic, and probably the one I'm most proud of, other than the ones the mods took away... :laugh:

    Absolutely agree about pics ! I can see "it" in a pic when I can't necessarily in the mirror.

    I took some pics I LOVE last week, but won't post them. They are just too sexy for MFP :)

    In those - the collarbones were what made me go WOW. But with collarbones comes cleavage and legs - at least in these pics. I think they are arty, sensual - but hesitate to post here. Guess ya'll just have to take my word for it - at least until I work up my nerve :)

    I love this! I've never really liked photos of myself . . . but I worked my *kitten* off and wanted to surprise my hubby for our 6th anniversary with some boudoir pics, (something I NEVER thought I'd do!) and it turned out it was the best thing I could have done for myself. My profile pic is my absolute favorite pic I have of myself, and last night my husband finally noticed that I was using it (I have MFP open on the computer 24/7). He asked why I was using that pic and my reply was simply "because I love it"! Never really been able to say that before :)
    Just an FYI ladies . . . when you are feeling comfortable in your own skin, no matter what your shape or size, get a photo shoot done, especially if you never thought you would! It is the most freeing, self confidence boosting experience EVER!
