i went to a wedding last night. there are pictures of it today on facebook and sadly i'm in some of them. i try so hard to avoid pictures or to make sure i am well posed (ie. to the side or something in front of my chin or just a chin up shot) but it didn't happen last night as people were snapping photos in every direction.
i look awful in them. i'm a big ol' shapeless blob. my arms are huge and shapeless. my chins are everywhere. i'm twice as big as everybody else.
it is really horrifying to see your candid self. i totally understand the, 'she would look really pretty if she just lost some weight' saying.
i just want this to be the big motivation i need to really get rolling on losing weight and not just satisfied with maintaining.

I still think you're beautiful, regardless of size. I know what you're saying though. It takes a candid picture to make one really think...
I hate pictures of myself too. Use this feeling for motivation!
And I agree with Chelle. :oD
It really sucks feeling like the biggest person in a group doesn't it? Oh how familiar that sounds. Especially when you feel bigger than half the men there too :(
As the others have said, use it as motivation and believe me, it is powerful. Consider them your "before" photos :)
