    Sorry they are so big!

    If you don't mind me saying, you were/are a beautiful full figured lady.
    I though the same thing, just a natural beauty!
    Interestingly enough, i was thinking THE SAME DARN THING! wow....

    I would have been like "B*!ch, I know why I'm fat! Now get me a real gift!"

    :laugh: right! Ironic that she paired it with a book about cupcakes. Hilarious

    I have one very particular photo that jolted me to do something. I will post it once I've found it: I deleted it as soon as I could but my dad has a copy of all the family photos.

    My graduation photos.

    My Mum and Dad were crying because they were proud, I was crying because I look fat in them. My face especially. My face has changed A LOT in the past 6 years. There are a few that make me look worse but I refuse to post those on the internet. :P

    It took me a few years to start doing something about it, but that was what really hit me.

    Here is mine. I have been yo-yo-ing for the last 6 years (gained 50 lb when I quit smoking 7 years ago), lose 20, gain 25, lose 25, gain 20...yada yada yada. Each time I start again I set my goal weight at 145 and the closest I have come is 165 before I stop trying and gain it all back. Well I am going on a cruise in December I decided last month I was going to reach my goal weight for the cruise and as a part of of my weight loss I was going to do the 30DS and I had my husband take some before pictures on my day 1....WELL I should have done this a long time ago and hung this picture on the fridge. When I saw this picture tears welled up in my eyes. I guess seeing yourself from the front every day, day in and day out, you kinda of become accustomed to your weight, well seeing it from another angle was a true eye-opener. I keep looking at this photo and I am now even more determined to reach my goal weight once and for all.

    AMAZING and by far, the most inspiring. I love to see older people (and I say "older" as a compliment) who lose a lot of weight.

    NO EXCUSES, PEOPLE!

    Yep, this one right here. I was in such a bad place, and I had been steadily gaining weight for about 5 years. I'm working on it now.

    This was one of those pictures I didn't know was being taken. When I was going through graduation photos later to pick some to put on the website I was horrified! I joined MFP the next day...

    I have PCOS and have always been heavy since a little kid..Started almost a year ago and have stayed committed to regular exercise & for the last six months did my best to do clean eating !

    I HATE this picture. P1020755_zpsda7b1c9b.jpg

    AND I actually used to think these were cute pictures/I didn't mind them enough to take down from Facebook.

    I suck at posting pics, but sadly, my "oh crap I'm fat" wake up call pic was my wedding photos from last year. :(

    I HATE this pic...I look like a green M&M!!!! I saw this and just cried. NO this is not me. My belly! My neck, bad enough a double chin but I was also getting neck rolls! Got me back into losing weight though (been off and on half-a**ing it since 2007) this time for GOOD.

    Me in late November 2012, approximately 280 lbs. Family Christmas photo, and yes, way too many people saw this.

    I have had several over the years, but the worst and my heaviest was last fall. I had a mirror at home, I knew I wore a size 24 and I knew my clothes were tight and uncomfortable......but nothing like seeing it in a photo.
