I just wanted to say THANK YOU to all of you who post your weight loss pictures. Somehow seeing the results lets me know that it IS POSSIBLE. I get on here almost every day for inspiration and I always find it...I can't wait until the day comes when I can post mine and be someone's inspiration for the day!!!

    I agree that people's success photos are inspiring, but be careful referring to them as "thinspiration". The term is very closely associated with anorexia, and the 'skin and bones' photos that some people who are pro-anorexia post for others to aspire to.

    WOW!...Thanks for telling me that. I just mean inspiration to get thinner. Crazy that people would encourage anorexia.

    I love looking at them too! Very motivational. I've been stalled for a couple of months and really need to refocus so I can get the last 20-25lbs off. So today I uploaded my most recent progress photos. Although the scale has stalled I am still losing inches slowly. After posting them in a group challenge side by side, I feel refocused to get rid of that last bit of belly!!
