in Motivation and Support
It has come to my attention that many MFP members (particularly ladies) have gotten to a point where they make the only photo of themselves of their head, as if they have something to hide. I would like to say a few words to this. I know you are uncomfortable with your bodies (well some of you may have this problem or just didnt take a body picture cause you didnt have the time), but i have come to realize that no matter what you look like there are TONS AND I MEAN TONS OF US OUT HERE WHO JUST WANT TO SUPPORT YOU! The first step to weight loss is seeing that you have undesirables and facing that fact head on! I know many of you are new and are just shy but i just want to pose a challenge out there to ladies with this phenomenon as well as men. You dont have to take pictures with clothing missing or anything. I think we should all face our fears however and kick this weight in the rear! Also speaking of which, if any of you who have this non body photo thing going on are scared about not getting support..... ADD ME! I am here for all, no discrimination based on body size here!

    You're so right. I have a set of body pics on my computer, and every time I take a new set I compare, and man, what a difference. I haven't posted them up yet, but I will when I get closer to goal.

    It never was nor never would be. I would not have posted that long of a post just for that. Would appreciate if the negativity would be brought down when all i have been was positive to all.

    the only reason my picture is a head shot is because it took it on my webcam.
    Secondly I say guys who show off their body but hide their face have something to hide. Maybe you are looking like Seal up their.
    I am very proud of my body. I love my curves and not afraid to show them off. But I know you said all the things with good intention so thank you for the earnest support. But believe me, I am hiding nothing.

    Ummmm.... most photos of people are of their face. I don't get why this is a sign of being uncomfortable with your body. I could post a pic of my *kitten* but no one would know who the hell I was :/

    Personally I prefer to see someone's face. That's the bit I talk to in real life so why would I talk to someone's abs online?

    OP: I know you mean well but I really don't think it means someone is uncomfortable with their body if they post a head shot. Not for most people anyway. Head shots are just the norm

    Why just to the ladies? Comes off kinda creepy IMO.

    Well no one wants to see this body at this point and time. Head shot is much nicer to look at LOL

    Reminds me of the Napoleon Dynamite movie when Kip says "I'm getting a little T O'ed because she hasn't sent me a full body shot yet".

    AHEM. IT HAS COME TO MY ATTENTION THAT WOMEN HAVE FOUND THIS POST OFFENSIVE SEEING AS I DID NOT ADDRESS THIS TO MEN AS WELL. WAS NOT MY INTENTION BUT FOR CLARIFICATION. I HAVE ALSO SAID IN THE TOPIC ITSELF THAT IT IS OPEN TO MEN AS WELL. I HAVE JUST SEEN IT MORE PRESENT IN THE WOMEN. THIS IS NO WAY SHAPE OR FORM IS A WAY FOR ME TO "SEE" WOMEN. Sorry for all the caps, just needed to get point across.
