    I have really thin ones from a few years back, those along the way, & current pics... Life is a journey. You have to know where you came from to figure out where you're going. They're all me, just different versions of me that reflect the changes that occurred over time...good & bad. They'll stay.

    I keep all my photos :) They are memories, and they are me. I may not have been as thin or in shape as I'd like, but still memories and me regardless.

    I still have another 20 lbs to go and I've already deleted my fat pics. :P

    How did you add those photos into your ticker? How do you do the side-by-side ones?

    I'll keep them... if I deleted all of my "fat" pictures, I'd miss my kids growing up! Besides, they are all a part of me... and I like ME.. good, bad or otherwise :)

    I will KEEP them! In fact, I will probably re-post some of them to prove to my friends and family that if I can do it, anybody can! Those pictures are me, and will always be me, and I am not ashamed of them! I cannot wait to post my new pictures by my old ones!

    I keep them to remind me how I DON'T want to look ever again :-) Also, it's fun when your FB friends who only see you in person once in a while are shocked when they see you. That never gets old!

    I will keep mine.... Just to remember where I came from & how much hard work it took to get to the new me.. And life is a journey - the good, the bad & the ugly... Its all me...

    I don't post fat pictures on Facebook. I have a few face shots taken with my webcam, and that's about it. It's always bothered me that I don't feel comfortable putting up pictures, but I absolutely detest having my picture taken.

    I would actually be proud to have the fat pictures up once I got to my goal weight. I'm sure I'll post a before and after.

    I think it's vain to delete the "fat" photos, just like untagging not particularly flattering ones. You obviously looked like that at some point in your life, why deny it?

    I kept one that I post on here - a before/after, but none others.
    I got to my goals weight, then deleted the fat me from FB and purged, as best I could, any evidence of it ever happening.

    I regret that now.

    I don't have "fat" pictures on FB, unless they were ones taken by friends that got immediately untagged (plus my friends and I have an unwritten code that we crop or delete any photos that the subject feels isn't flattering).

    I've spent years learning how to photograph and pose just right so that I never truly look my weight. ;) My face changes a bit one way or the other but not too much. There just aren't any full on body pics since I got heavy. :)

    also to follow up. I am sometimes embrassed by my old fat pics but I'd rather have my FB friends see my fat pics and that if I can do it, i.e. lose weight, be healthy, then they sure as hell can too! plus I get told alot by others that I inspire folks. so another reason to keep them up and not hide it.

    There are so few pictures of me fat. I avoided the camera at all costs. I will keep the few I have because they are face only, but even that was fat so it shows the changes. It is nice to not have to hide from the camera anymore.
