I have a really awesome group of friends on MFP. Recently, I was worried about my body, and the loose skin/fat that won't seem to go away.

My friends here have talked some sense (or nonsense) into me... and gave me some newfound confidence that I desperately needed... I was not feeling as proud as I could have, or should have... knowing I've dropped over 115 pounds.

So, I took a couple of pictures without my shirt. Just taking the pictures was... well.. scary enough, but posting them?

When I was 310 pounds, this would have been ridiculous. Now, I'm able to post these pictures (they're on my profile), and feel pretty good about them. I've come a really long way.

    Well done, what a fantastic result! :flowerforyou:
    Loose skin is a small problem compared with all the other problems that come from being very obese. You did awesome!
