I found a website that lets you search for images of real women based on their height, weight, and body type (apple, pear, etc). So, for someone like me who has never been thin, you can get an idea what you will look like as you lose weight. This was a treasure to find right now, because I was getting discouraged. My weight loss has slowed a lot, but this site DEF gave me a good push to keep going.

    I checked out the webiste you posted about, answered their questions & got this reply - We don't yet have any pictures that match your search criteria. I am not willing to post a picture of myself, as they suggested because I avoid cameras. So, I'll check back later because it does sound like a great website.

    I had a quick look and while the idea is great, I can't see how it's very accurate when people are uploading their own photos... I was looking at some of them and there's no way they were either the body type or height/weight that they were listed under!

    I'm down to the last 9 lbs to reach my initial goal. Always hear the last few are the hardest to lose. Can I still join?

    If you're not finding anything under your height and weight, you could adjust the height up an inch and the weight up 10 lbs.. that should be about the same... and I doubt it's meant to be completely accurate.. keep in mind, its only for motivational purposes.. and one person with a certain height/weight could look completely different than another at the same height/weight. All on how they lost the weight and body composition.
