Not that I look good from the front cuz of my love handles, same in the back lol. I like arm shots LOL cuz I can look nice in them hahahaha

    Louise, I can totally see the difference from the front. Put #1 next to #6 and you will, too. It's especially pronounced in waist & hips.

    You guys are all so beautiful. I think it's amazing that you guys are so real and honest. Me? I'm way too chicken and ashamed of myself but I'm really trying hard to work on loving myself no matter what I look like. With so many cocky, condescending people on MFP this was really refreshing.

    Louise, this is a brilliant thread! I've posted some after photos elsewhere on MFP, but none of them showing the bits I'm still a bit embarrassed about. But I have become firmly convinced through my time on MFP that we have to learn to love our bodies with all their "imperfections." This pic shows the lovely overhang I still have thanks to being overweight my entire adult life (I'm 37). Since joining MFP last January I've lost 98 lbs (dropping from 217lbs to 119lbs), but I've gained so much love and respect for my body and what it's capable of. I've stopped trying to lose more weight (I'm 5'4", and I haven't weighed this little since I was about 10), but I continue to work on finding new fitness goals and to improve my body image. I have two children by c-section (can't see the scars because they hide under the overhang), so I've got stretch marks, wrinkles, and scars, and my husband thinks I'm sexy (which after how I feel about myself is the most important thing).

    This is so sweet! thanks- you should join in regardless :P GO FOR IT!! :)
    Louise, I can totally see the difference from the front. Put #1 next to #6 and you will, too. It's especially pronounced in waist & hips.

    I have done that now and this is the result:
    back-152-6.jpg?w=500&h=
    front-152-6.jpg?w=500&h=
    side-152-6.jpg?w=370&h=

    Personally I still dont see it from the front! But I believe you :)
    And holy rap the back view I can really see a diff!

    I really cannot believe the support and input people have included on this post!!! I feel so much better about my bad bits and so proud of u guys....

    photo9-1.jpg?t=1338370452

    I dont think there is a big difference but I think my belly looks a bit less bloated.
    Still a long way to go I think, especially in the toning up!
