Back Fat...

So a co-worker just emailed me some pictures from a business dinner we had. In one of the pictures, I was standing by the food table with my back to the camera. I immediately noticed it was me...and I thought OMG! Is that what my back looks like?! I was wearing one of my favorite spring shirts, that is a thin material. I love the color and it is super comfy. I even had my cute fashion belt on, which I don't think helped the back situation. There are a some moments when I feel like I'm not that big, but then when I see pictures like that I think...I need to stop lying to myself and do something about that. I think the back fat was all the motivation I need to get my butt in gear!

(I couldn't figure out how to post the pic. Sorry.)

    I remember back fat! I used to refer to it as my 'manatee flaps' - LOL Thank goodness it's all gone now!

    That's exactly what motivated me. I was walking down the hall one day and noticed I could feel a roll on my back where the fat was touching :laugh:

    i had kinda the same uh huh moment a few months age.. I was walking around the mall shopping and I felt something weird rubbing on my back.. I went to the washroom to figure it out and what do you know it was my back fat rubbing together as I walked!! WOW was I ever mortified, how had I never noticed it before?? Well that was the realization that I needed to start my journey to a healthier and back fat free life!! Wake Up calls suck but what do you do?? Good luck on your journey you can do it!!

    I think back fat is worse than belly fat. You can see your belly fat...but you can't your back fat. But....you know it's back there representing!!

    I agree...I want to lose both BUT I'll be SO SO SO happy when the back fat is gone! My niece calls it "Back Boobs" I HATE that!

    I am aggravated as heck about it too!! I have gone from about 187lbs to CW of 146lbs and I STILL have it. I have only 25 to 30 lbs to go and I feel like well some of its gone, but I feel like it will NEVER go away. I need more cardio. That's probably it! Friend me and we can lose it together!!!
