    @hoovhome you look great. You are definitely thinned out in the middle and in your cheeks.

    Thank you, ladies! To show you where I started 3 years ago, I posted this picture. I was around 217 at the time - didn't have really accurate scales back then.

    This is from May 23, 2016 - almost 3 years after the other one.

    Please remember we are ALL beautiful, no matter what size we are. If you are unhappy with your before photos, there is no pressure to post them. But we are here to support one another, not the opposite. And you are NOT ugly, I see your beautiful face every time I open myfitnesspal! When you are ready to post a photo, just remember there is a lot of love in this group❤️

    No worries. I used to hide from the camera and actually cried at work once when someone took a picture AND PUBLISHED IT in a work-related publication without my permission. Technically they said they didn't need my permission, but I had some real issues with how I felt about myself at that time. Most of it was not even weight-related, but due to emotional abuse at that time. In fact, I was smaller then than I am right now.

    For certain, I can tell you that you are a beautiful woman. You started this amazing group for great reasons. No matter what you see when you look in the mirror, you are lovable! What a sweet lady you are - lots of evidence of that in this group. I hope you feel that from each of us. When you are ready to OWN the beautiful woman inside you and you WANT to post a picture, then you will. HUGS!!!!!!!!

    Hi Stella
    I couldn't agree more with the comments above. You are truly lovely and, picture or no picture, that shines through!
    I know how hard it is to pose for a picture when you're not proud of where you are.

    A good friend of mine prepaid a photographer to take some photos of my family. That was 18 months ago! I just keep putting it off because I want to look better. The truth is, I should just make the appt and appreciate the gift. My husband and kids love me no matter what I think. And...tomorrow isn't guaranteed.

    Besides, we can always look back at today's picture to see how far we've come!
