    This... funniest thing is that I have plenty of other photos of that day (my birthday last year) that I love, that I think I look great in, but this one photo just made me realise I had to make some changes in my life!

    Case in point, my profile pic :laugh:

    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.

    I have VERY few pics of me fat because I avoided the camera like the plague. But I have this one from my son's wedding....

    I hated that dress but it was the only thing I could get that looked anywhere decent on me. I was SO happy to donate that one.

    I'm on the right. Still has taken me some years to do anything about it, though. D:

    This was at my college graduation around 155. I was drinking basically every night and eating a lot of fried food.

    This is me around 144. Still a ways to go, but a definite improvement.

    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!

    Me too. I was like "wowzers!!!"

    I saw this pic of me from Christmas and was utterly disgusted with myself.

    This is me a few weeks ago, still have some fat to lose but I'm down 18 lbs and 10.5 inches!

    Oh man. This is the most amazing thread ever.

    You know it's bad when you feel like you're gonna break your friend's body:

    And when you feel much fatter than your skinny boyfriend:

    I think this was a stop at the Mississippi River while I was making my cross-country trip moving to Seattle from Delaware. I was obviously trying to dress comfortably for my 5 day trip but, in my mind, outfit said "casual yoga cool". Ummm. No.

    I have no idea what I weighed at the time, but it was probably within 10-15lbs of where I am now. I hate this picture.....

    I hope this works, I've never posted a picture before *fingers crossed*
    This was taken a couple of years ago on Thanksgiving, it's one of the more "flattering" before pictures, most of the others have been deleted lol

    It bums me out when people feel like they have to say, "I know I still have a lot to lose, but here is my really fat pic." Its like they are saying, please don't judge me I'm already judging myself harshly. Everyone on here is working at it. You can only be a better you today than you were yesterday. :)

    Ok here is my big one (on the right). A bummer, because it was a great day for me with my dad and boys.

    Oh and the dreaded bad angle shot (there were a lot of bad angles)

    fatpic2_zps534fb8b7.jpg

    I'm down another 25 since this one but can't find any pictures (oh well down 60 will have to do)

    Its weird I can't seem to find any skinny ones.

    I will have to dig out my own pics, but I have to say, I laughed aloud just at the title, then at the "oh hel no" moment. Laughter is good medicine.:laugh:

    Well...I have a lot, the most embarassing one I can't seem to find (on Facebook somewhere). I am sitting next to a VERY petite friend and I am about...6 times bigger than her...WOW. I cried for days, and this was after I had lost weight, I can't imagine how I would have felt a couple months before that!

    This is me around 2 years ago, taken outside a club. I weighed around 246lbs at the time. I couldn't just wear just a shirt out, I always had to hide behind a hoodie so that I felt comfortable. Oh how things change! 70+ lbs down and I feel so much better.

    *Edited to post photo correctly...sorry it's/i'm so large! Haha!*

    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.

    I am considered "thin" I guess...and yes, I hold a lot of belly fat. I have had a baby (5 years ago) but this has always been the case for me.

    My oh crap wake up call wasn't a photo. I've seen plenty, I've known I was BIG, but that wasn't what grabbed my attention. I had an aunt that was a large lady all her life and she passed away rather unexpectedly at 64. That is such a young age. I realized then that I HAD to lose the weight. I have a 14 month old daughter and I want to be here with her as long as possible. I have various health issues already, and I'm not even 25 yet. That was what grabbed me, shook me, and said "Hey, it's time to be over being a fat kid and make better choices!" So I joined MFP and started walking with 2 of my cousins from the same side of the family my aunt is from. We have all changed our eating habits and we have all lost some weight. We still have a long way to go, I have the longest, but I KNOW that I'm going to lose the weight. Because I am determined and I have prayed that God would see my efforts and multiply them. I trust Him, He is faithful, and He is helping me overcome.
