Before pictures. First post. I'm being brave. And I need help with my face.

Makeup Artist Deems This Poster.....Gorgeous!

I see probably 30 women per week, up close and personal (about 6 inches from their faces)..and all I can say is you might be suffering from body image distortion. You are a beautiful woman - embrace it, own it, celebrate it!!
 
You look REALLY pretty, dont be saying "I need face changes" DOnt change a thing, just lose the weight. You might actually see a difference after you lose the weight. With a lot of people, their face has more shape, and become much more pretty after losing weight. That is probably gonna happen with you. You'll just become prettier!

I've recently hit a hideous weight I swore to myself I'll never become. I'm 182 pounds now, and I'm 5' 6". My goal weight is 127 pounds. Thats 55 pounds I have to lose. I'm looking for people to lose weight with, its good support.


Anway, you should be happy, you're really pretty, and you'll get prettier as you shed the pounds!
I wish you luck with the weight loss! Do it safely!
 
Oh good gracious, heavens. You are quite all sorts of lovely. You have a unique beauty about you. You look Swedish :) or something equally exotic and all that happiness. People are fools, you know. Tyra Banks and Angelina Jolie were both teased as youths. Think about that for a second.

I agree with a previous post. Seek counseling if you want resolve. You won't be happier with superficial procedures.

Chin up, and best of luck. :seeya:
 
I have never gotten to say this legitimately, ever, so here goes...

"Anyway, good luck with your face."

Bwahahahahahaha. No but seriously I wish you all the best. And for the record I think simple weight loss will be enough to make you a very attractive lady if you aren't already.

I know it's trite and all, but learn to love who you are. If you won't, who will?
 
You need to stop listening to other people sweetheart, you are absoloutely beautiful and there is not one thing in the world wrong with your face. Your hair and eyes are gorgeous and I honestly can't see a thing wrong with you, you don't need to work on your face or your body, but your self confidence could do with one mighty boost. Take care and good luck.
 
Sweetie, you are definitely not ugly. I don't know who told you that , but who every it was deserves a good butt whoopin'. I can't believe you are 205 , you look smaller than that. I started out at 262lbs and I can tell you I looked every ounce of it. It breaks my heart to hear you so down on yourself. I really hope that you won't have the plastic surgery, I know that many people would die to have your looks. If I could make a suggestion , if you are absolutely intent on having the surgery please wait until you reach your goal. I'm telling you that you will have a great physical and more important mental change.
 
Your problems are psychological. Probably from years of self consciousness because of what happened to you. But there's nothing wrong with your face. Seriously.
 
WOW, you all are really sweet angels. Thank you for all of the kind comments.

I've decided that I need to go to at least three months of weekly therapy. I'm sure a few of you probably think I've gone crazy, lol.

The funny thing is you should have seen my before list of plastic surgeries I wanted. There was at least 25 things I wanted to have done. I guess I've come a long way.

I've realised that I never initially hated myself. It was other people who brought me down this road. So at least I know where I should start. I still do feel physically repulsive.

I gave up on weight loss but I am restarting this week. I'll be sure to post pictures. I've decided that I want to get down to 115.

Someone was on my account a while back. If I see anything that I didn't post I'll just clear it up.

P.S-I got a monroe piercing today! It looks really good on my face. So I guess its a confidence boost. lol. :)

Love you all!
 
Okay, whomever you've been hanging out with all your life, is obviously blind. After reading your post and clicking on the picture, I was honestly expecting you to look like King Kong or the Wicked Witch of the West, I was NOT expecting you to be so attractive.

Why do you want to change yourself? I don't get it. You're actually quite stunning, imo. You're not far at all from esthetically pleasing. Your hair and eyes are quite beautiful. And let me tell you something, whoever tells you otherwise has psychological problems, chica. It's not you, it's definitely them.

I wouldn't change anything about you. And if you're afraid, because of your physical appearance, that you're never going to have a steady relationship or get married, you haven't met the right person yet. The man you'll want to spend the rest of your life with, will think the sun shines out of your butt no matter what. Ugly, fat, thin, good hair day, bad hair day, he'll love you for *you* not for who you think you need to look like.

Definitely you should achiever your weight-loss goals simply to be healthier in the long run. As far as cosmetic surgery, nix the idea. It's absurd. Trust me, there are people out there FAR worse off then you. In fact, they're at a different end of the spectrum. You know, the kind of people who have a tendency to resemble animals, yeah, those ones. Don't laugh, it's true. Unfortunately.
 
screw all who said that you are ugly ..

are you single :p you are damn hot girl

dont do any thing especially your hair .,. and you face is shining girl

give me a call if you were single :p
 
Oh good lord! Would ya look at those eyes! Those 'come hither' exotic eyes! RRRRRREOW!!!! *baseball, puppies, and grandma... baseball, puppies, and grandma*

I don't know who the hell's been telling you that you're ugly, but me thinks they has head problems...

If I had to rate you on a scale of 1-10; I'd have to put you around an 8.5-9. I'm not just saying this to make you feel good... I mean every word of it.

If I wasn't married, I tell ya what...

"You see that good looking girl right there? Oh well... All you can do is run to the end of your chain and bark" --Walter

I think therapy is a good idea. It doesn't mean there's something wrong with you, or that your crazy. If you're told something over and over; after a while you start to believe it. It's just the way our brains work. Sometimes we just need to be 'reprogrammed' to get other peoples' BS outta the way.

For what it's worth from some guy on the interwebs... DAYUMN!

Admire your honesty :p
 
I wouldn't have posted this if it wasn't true.

You are beautiful! Not just "not ugly". but genuinely very pretty! I can't believe people have called you ugly. Seriously, I'm confused.

And sometimes we see imperfections in ourselves that aren't really there, you just have to learn to love yourself and others will too!

I wish I looked like you.
 
Listen, being "overweight" doesn't make anyone look good, or at least, as good as they could be. Your look very pretty for someone who's overweight.

But I'm still upset...

I'm upset because I know as soon as you lose the weight you're going to be one of the hottest girls I had probably ever seen, and then you'll be what all the "overweight" girls strive to look like.
 
Hey girl !
First of all , let me tell you that you are far from being ugly, actually I honestly think that you are a very beautiful girl, you have such a beautiful eyes and your hair is not that bad .. come on , what are you talking about ?

I'm pretty sure that after your weightloss program you are going to become one of the hotest girls in this forum !

Seriously, stop listening to all those idiots who said that you are ugly and start loving you a little bit more.

Ohh and please , don't do any surgery on your face .. you don't need it, you are gorgeous.

Good luck with the weight loss. Can't wait to see your achievements.

Cheers !!!!!!!
 
I just went back to see your photos again, and I was right, you are far from being ugly.
You are really really beautiful.

By the way ..... Are you single ? Hehehe


Ciao
 
First, you aren't how you were writing.

Second, to go from "gross" to "beautiful" isn't really physical with you because in my opinion, you are not starting out as "gross", so if in others eyes you are not gross, it must be in your own so you have to change the way you feel. I am not saying your weight loss goals should be put to the side, I am 202 lbs (well last time I weighed yesterday) and also around 5'5 so I know how much healthier it is to be a good weight. I think that if you start doing healthy things, such as eating healthy foods or to continue and to exercise and do healthy things in your life such as good hobbies, good friends, fun things like the beach or movies, helping people, and even church can can all help you feel good about yourself on the inside and then you can start to see how beautiful you are. I am wishing you nothing but good thoughts on your journey!
