    My dear! You are a very beautiful woman!
    Don't ever cry about your appearance and if you're here looking to lose pounds, you have come to the right place.

    Remember you have my support and all the support of all MFP.
    Chin up and dry those tears. I don't like to see people cry.

    :bigsmile:

    Don't be sad....you came to the right place to get yourself healthy. You can do this. Just get on board...start logging in all your food intake, start moving and add as many friends as possible on MFP to keep you motivated. You can do this..Good luck :-)

    You look really pretty :-)

    And you can get back to how you felt before with just some little adjustments...it really isn`t so hard. I have lost 20lbs in just over 3 months and dropped 4 jean sizes and 3 top sizes.

    I remember this same thought--Easter 2000---I looked like a giant purple easter egg. I had no idea how it happened. You are lovely. Make a commitment for life, :) You won't be sorry. BEST OF LUCK to you!!!

    Nope, no tears - tears are for things you have no control of. You can totally start working on this! I don't know what your goals are, but I'd recommend logging your food EVERY day and beginning your plan. It took me several weeks to get into a routine in making food choices and fitting in exercise, but it does get much easier! Patience is the key. Six months and almost 30 pounds later, I couldn't be happier with the website. Dry the tears, gorgeous! Get busy! :flowerforyou:

    you are a worker among workers here! we welcome you with open arms! please don't be sad...you are here to change and if you truly believe you can and will, then you can and will! plus, you are beautiful! just because you think you're worse off than many, many are worse off than you, and those many are better off than lots of others. it's all relative...

    today is the first day of the rest of your life! you are very young and lots to be happy for.

    honestly, I didn't think the pic was bad at all! but I understand if you aren't at the weight you want to be at.

    one of my friends on here did a cool thing. He wrote down the 10 things he hated about being fat and put them on his profile. I bet it's a cool exercise and also invigorating.

    you are in the right place here....now dust yourself off. Grab a tea or coffee....and plan your meals and workout for tonight.

    you got this!!

    No tears! Just determination! I know how you're feeling - I've flet it many times. All we can do is go from here and not dwell on the past.

    And I think you look pretty good, myself :)

    ((((((HUGS)))))) I remember when I realized that I need to do something for myself a year ago - it was hard to face, but it needed to be done. You came to the right place. MFP is so full of support/encouragement. We will help you through this journey - rely on us for support. I know it seems to out of reach, but it is very doable - I am living proof of it. Everyone doubted me when I started, and here I am 56 lbs down (about 3 lbs until my second goal weight). Feel free to add me for extra support/encouragement. You are beautiful - just remember that this is a process and a journey - it takes time, dedication, and hard work.
