Small MFP Complaint

Briko3 · August 2013

This isn't a HUGE deal, but it is a slight complaint. We see a lot of posts with before and after pictures, and how much weight we lost, etc. The BIG thing that's almost always left out is the height of the person. Going from 230 down to 185 is great, but doesn't mean a whole lot to someone that is 230 that is trying to lose weight unless there is a height listed for comparison. Just a small little change in how the threads are started would make a really big difference.

Anyone else notice this?

All you have to do is ask, and I'm sure people will tell you.

I can't say I get too bothered by it. We're all losing at different rates and we all "wear" our weight very differently. To me change is change. I hope that my 30 pound loss can inspire someone to treat hemselves better.

I've been inspired by some people who have lost several pounds, and some who have lost less but been patient and perservered.

You're right, and I do. The problem is more noticeable when looking at long threads with many pictures. It would be hard to go through 10 pages of success stories and ask.
