No game 14,437 Posted December 4, 2013 Oh!! And I saw your picture on my gobble gobble turkey day thread from thanksgiving girlie!! That one was a GREAT picture.. Your sister didn't take that one, did she??? I rest my case.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BladeFox 235 Posted December 4, 2013 Keep your head up and get back in it! I think it's only natural to want instant gratification in pictures and we all know that pictures add 15 lbs to each of us, so it's not the real test. I also think that you know that you have probably lost about 5 sizes by now and that is such a huge accomplishment!!! Since you have more weight to lose, pat yourself on the back for getting where you are today, get refocused and mean with it girl, and look forward to this summer when you will be fine and oh so sexy 1 sophiepants reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

southernsoul 773 Posted December 4, 2013 I know exactly what you mean, so here's my example from a few weeks ago. Same day, same outfit, but the angle makes all the difference. When I saw the second one my friend took & posted all I could think about was how ginormous my ass still is. I'm pretty sure that even if I lose another 50 or 60 lbs I'll still be carrying enough junk for me & 2 others. 2 Molly3 and Butterthebean reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

McButterpants 2,846 Posted December 4, 2013 Hey there, Redbean...You have had such great success - 53 pounds is amazing. Please don't put value in some crappy Thanksgiving day photo. I am not sure I have every liked a pic taken of me - at any weight. Keep your chin up and be proud of what you've accomplished and look forward to the future. I'm going to copy your signature here - read it until you believe it! :-) Your present circumstances don't determine where you can go; they merely determine where you start. ~Nido Qubein 2 Seela and gamergirl reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Beach Lover 1,084 Posted December 4, 2013 I think you looked fantastic!! I also think that seeing pictures of ourselves take some time to accept. We have spent so many years not even letting someone take a picture and loathing the pictures that they managed to take that we just automatically shut down a good picture because of what we are so used to seeing in our minds. We can't even see the good picture staring us in the face. I also agree that angles and bad photographers play a major part in the pictures we are looking at. Be happy because I think you look amazing! You have come a long way! 4 gamergirl, ReDbEaN, Molly3 and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And it tends to make Tony happy, too. 3 ReDbEaN, gamergirl and Molly3 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
