First off, i'm extremly shy. give me constructive criticism....dont' sugar coat...and plus, I know its a little change up, we have mostly gal's before and afters/in between (there's nothing wrong with that though :p)

I took this shot a while back, about 2 years ago in my senior year of high school. For a project actually, abut I am grossed out by it. I look absolutely nasty, and the type of clothes I was wearing, omg, gross. I musta been in the 260s back then. I apolegize in advance how I looked back then...i had such low self confidence and self image, and let myself go.

I hope they kinda serve as motivatoin, they kinda motivate me...kinda :confused:

I am sooo nervous posting these, soooo freaking nervous. If i get too much anixety, I might pull them down and post them when i reach my therotical "after".

another note: the first picture was taking with a digtial camera with flash, the 2nd was taken with a camera phone, no flash. and as stated in the title, this is only a SAMPLE!!!!

Now i'm 211 and I took this pic today. I took it for the christmas clothe challange.

Ok, me in about the 260's, Feb 2005 (look how miserable i look back then :(...oh, and that particular shirt is what i have used to cut lawns, when i was in that business)

Me now, 211, i'm an idiot and the date in the pic is off. its actually on July 19th!!!!!...i'm just in a relaxed pose

Remember, CONSTRUCTIVE critiscim, i'm a man, i can handle the truth! (or if i can't, i'll pull the pics down :D)

Nothing to be nervous about. The change is incredible(and I'm not sugar coating) There is a huge improvement between those pics. Keep up all the hard work.
 
I have this overwhelming desire to run my fingers thru your hair :)

you are adorable :)

and the transformation is remarkable :)

Oh wait, no sugar coating.. .

you're so... cute! and look fantastic!!

the man boobs are gone, the tummy is gone...you've done well :D
 
I must say WOW you have done so well!!What a huge difference.
I don't see anything to be bitter about.But it is how you feel about
yourself,obviously we see a huge differnece but if you are not
comfy with your body then keep working until you get there.
GOOD LUCK IN THE X/MAS CHALLANGE TAMMY
 
Shy.....You should be PROUD of yourself for what you have achieved. Amazing difference....you look so much younger in the after picture. Keep up the good work.....way to go.....as all of us know it does take a lot of commitment and hard work to get where you are now..........
 
Thank you all for the wonderful compliments :) (stuco, prhotmama, boam, tammy, maestro and dream!!!! you are all great!!)

I am learning to try to take compliments. My mom/aunt says that I am a very negative person. Whenever they compliment on my looks I tell them they are just being nice.

I think getting a better self image of myself will be one of the hardest parts of this journey.

And stop it mal, you are making me blush :eek:...:p. The man boobs (or like I would like to say scientifically, gynecomastia) are almost gone. More reduction in body fat, and it should be pretty much dead forever.

Sorry you guys, no shirtless pics for a while, lol, these couple of pics was a huge hurdle for me :rotflmao:
 
Wow! more than 1/2 gone!

Those are awesome pics my man!

Nothing to be ashamed of at all! You have 100% changed for the better!

Not even just the body, but your face has become much more distinguished looking instead of round!

Bloody well done!!

No need to take those pics down, take pride in them instead!

sirant
 
Yay for pictures!!! You look amazing! Stop being so hard on yourself. Before you looked like a shy boy uncomfortable in his own skin, now you look like a more confident, handsome young man. :)
 
You look WONDERFUL!

I know about the clothes. The heavier I am, I feel like I need to dress "down" like if I wear something nice or pretty, I'm screaming to people, "look at me, I think I'm hot!" I don't think people feel that way, maybe they do, but I need to get over how much I care what others think! When I lose weight I slowly put on clothes that are nicer, etc. Plus, they don't make the greatest (that I can afford) clothes for plus sizes!

I also wanted to add that I cannot take a compliment. It makes me feel like people are lying to me, it makes me feel uncomfortable, and I just don't like to draw that much attention to myself. I remember when I was a size 6 (from 18) in high school and I STILL thought I was the biggest cow of them all. LOL I seriously remember looking at my body crying, WTF right? Yeah I get it now. BUT it is HARD to see yourself as thin, or beautiful or handsome after feeling and dealing with those emotions for such a long time. One thing I regret NOT doing while I was a size 6, showing my hot ass off! (sorry if that is offensive). So what I'm trying to say is.....you look great and you should feel proud of yourself and you should take this opp to show yourself OFF.
