    super love your tattoo! anyways,. .. you have that courage and you encourage others.. I thought i was the only one.. I have stretchmarks on my belly during and after pregnancy and since then I only went swimming once and that was night swimming so people wouldn't notice I had guts to wear my 2 piece with those belly fats and stretchmarks. I joined MFP reading blogs but i havent started using tools or anything here as I am not yet ready I can say.. I now one day I can be like you, I want to show what I got, what I am and that, I can change it. I want to be healthy. You're an inspiration.

    Thank you for starting this thread, it is what I needed to see today, all of you are truly beautiful :heart: and look amazing!! I can see beauty in all of you, stretch marks and all, yet when I look at my own reflection in the mirror all I see is yuck :frown: I have had 5 babies and at the age of 38 I know I will never get my pre baby body back.....You all have inspired me to keep going and do the best I can and hopefully, one day have the courage to show off my mummy tummy pics with pride.

    To the guys....you look great too :flowerforyou:

    Mandi- your figure is lovely :)

    Special- I really hop so too, I am sure you look better than you perceive yourself- I hated my body- still not in love with it, but I am accepting it more with these comments!

    Don't be ashamed of those stretch marks, ladies. They are really tiger marks and you earned every one of them.

    Seeing you all being so brave posting these pictures makes me want to take some. I won't have a starting weight picture, but I decided to start losing weight about 3 weeks ago, but...I started at 141. Not the highest I've been, I was 148 at one point, but I decided the day I went to my first dr. appt. in years that I would start to lose weight when I saw the 141. Every time I go to the doctor I put in that weight for my weigh-ins. We don't have a scale at home so. :/ I lost 5 pounds the next time I went to the doctor (two weeks later) so it really made me more motivated. I'll have my husband take pictures for me and then upload them when I get the chance. I was a size 13 in juniors, went to a 12 in womens (juniors have odd numbers and women have even number for pants here). Yesterday I decided to dig in the back of my closet and try on my size 11 jeans. THEY FIT. I was ecstatic. I really want to get back into single digits. My DREAM is to be a size 5 like I was when I graduated high school. But I would be happy as a 7 or 9. (I just know I never want to be super thin again like I was in the first three years of high school. size 0-3, 96-110lbs. D:
