Original image on left, touched-up image on right. What if everyone knew that the bodies we idolize in print are fabrications? Do you have a belly and thighs? So does this model.

    Sorry....but no amount of photoshoping will make my belly look that great lol She had a great body before the alterations.

    Add about 10 times the fat and that's where I'm at :-)

    Mine has gone down a lot after losing weight but I still do a little even with being pretty slim....have yet to meet or see a "real" girl (no plastic surgery, no photoshop, etc.) who doesn't, honestly!!

    Lol yup I do... Still working on it... I think I kinda like the model better with her little belly and hips. I don't know just think it looks better on her.

    I hate that they STILL photoshop Oprah on her magazine cover. We all KNOW she doesnt look like that. Who are they fooling? They think people wont buy the magazine it they see how round her face is or how wide her hips are. If so, then obviously the content of the magazine isn't good enough.

    I dont buy the magazine but I have seen photos of Oprah and you cant miss her magazine staring at you from the rack at the grocery store.....I dont like hypocrisy.

    And yes I do, after 3 kids (2 cesarians) it is really hard to get rid of.

    I prefer the real her. Why did they make her more tan?

    hahahaha tsk tsk tinkling is the shower is forbidden because it will turn blue :) jk But the only thing that bothers me is that I have alittle stomach (check out my pictures on my thread or on my profile) I hate it because I never had it in high school and the beginning of college. That is the only thing that bothers me other than that I am fine!! haha :):mad:

    I think you look good without the brushing up. Just be proud of who you are, your belly does not make you, you make you!!!

    Keep up the good work!!!

    Up until I hit 50 (three years ago) I've been naturally thin but still with a a small belly. Sadly, it's not a little larger than I'd like so I'm working on it again.

    I have found speed intervals does work to lessen it ... but it takes a very long time along with consistently doing it without breaks.

    I wish I could photo shop my belly off in real life. Oh how I'd be in heaven then.

    LIES...that's a before and after pic...

    She clearly joined MFP before the white and beige swimsuit photo....

    That is a result of eating back her calories...

    interesting photo.

    I was born with a belly. It got bigger over the years and now I am working to shrink it!

    WOW that is amazing and frustrating, to work super hard for an image that may not even be real or attainable (smh)....

    Wow!! That's actually really inspiring to me right now. Yes I do have a belly. Had a 10lbs baby when I weighed 290lbs, so mummy tummy and I are well acquainted, but working on it. It gets a little more under control everyday. :)

    wish I could see the pic, but I can say I still have a small pouch and some residual thighs. I'm good with it as long as my abs play nice. :wink:

    I can't see the photo. :(

    But yes, I have a belly. I always have and it makes me maaad. Oh well, it's going down, slowly but surely.
