Post Your OH CRAP, I'M FAT, Wake Up Call Pics

I'm real thick but luckily didn't catch belly fat until i hit around 200 - all in my legs, butt and arms... This woman looks small, do thin women like this really get bellies like that or is this more like baby weight. It seems weird to see only weight in the stomach and no where else.

The belly is the first place fat goes on me. I have had so many of those moments.

I don't have my "Oh, crap" picture here, but I will get it soon from my boyfriend's mom. I asked her to burn it but I'm pretty sure she didn't comply with my wishes.

(I'm the one in the middle)
I had already lost half of my weight when joining MFP. I knew I was fat wayyy before that picture but had no motivation to lose it because I had really bad depression. I'm pretty sure I had social anxiety where I couldn't go in public without panicking and always had to have someone with me. It wasn't just losing weight that gave me deliverance but it was getting my heart right with Jesus. I've never been the same

you cant look like that and think you hot. thats the stone cold truth. no hot *kitten* lady got time fo dat!

but the story ends well, lookin gooood right? oooh yeh!

This first picture is from Summer 2008, I was 14 I think, I gained a good 30lbs that summer right after my parents initial split just before my first year of high school. I seriously can't remember much of that year because it was so depressing



This is 2010, I only stepped on a scale maybe once a month because I was so depressed about my increasing weight, I maintained between 165 - 183 from 2010 til I got my butt into gear last March.



This is 2011 shortly after turning 18 (11/19), on Thanksgiving day, my face was losing shape and getting round.



I beyond hate this pic from last September, it's what got me started on MFP in October.



And now, I've lost 33lbs so far, from my HW 183 to my CW 150, I have another 25 - 30lbs to go but I'm feeling darn confident already, got this bikini from Old Navy. Sadly I've only lost a couple inches around my belly so far so it's what keeps me pushing.



It took me a long time (4 years) to finally put effort into losing weight and being healthy again but I'm glad I did. And if you quote me take out most of the pictures so the thread doesn't get annoying to scroll through since I have 5 here

Russell Brand?

You took the words right out of my mouth, damn!

Dec 25, 2011 - weight unknown


Although I think this is probably the picture that upset me the most:
End of January 2012 - 260lbs

Comparing it to my passport photo from 2009:

I was ashamed that I had let myself get so overweight. I think my first reaction when I saw the 2 pictures side by side was something like this: :blushing: to :noway: to :grumble: to :sad:

I'm 200.6lbs now. I still have a long way to go but I'm getting there.

My wake up call, two Easters ago. Took me a while to do anything. I was afraid of scales, but probably 320, 330.



And this is me in the same skirt, at 298.

not sure if i should take that as a compliment or an insult.

I can't stand that man, but you look smokin'.
