The Camera Never Lies!
Last night I went to a party and thought I looked pretty good. Then I say the photos!! I had several chins and chunky arms. I just looked fat. There is no other way to say it. I kept reminding myself that at least I was thinner than I was a couple of weeks ago.
It has made me really determined to lose the weight !
I have to go to a family dinner in a little while and I can usually eat reasonable food there. I am going to track everything I eat and my exercise from now on. I am also going to bite the bullet and upload some photos later. I always avoid doing this. I think I have some kind of illusion about how I really look so photos always shock me.

I also hate seeing a photo of myself and always run when I see a camera, a friend of mine even taped me with her camcorder “running” away from her…it was HORRIBLE!!! Seeing a fat a@* running all over the place was not a pretty sight to see. Yikes!! At least you KNOW that the next picture WILL look better!! You go girl!! Good Luck!!
Ya, I know that I am fat but I really don’t relize just how big I am until you see a pic.Like I once said—-Oh is that my butt?
but I have noticed, seeing the pic does make you want to loose the weight.I made my daughter take several pic of me now so I can keep looking at them and face reality.Plus it makes you want to reach your goal.Keep up the good work,We can do this!!!
We will certainly do this!! I lost 125 lbs. after seeing a photo I.D. of me taken at work. I knew I had gained and gained, but we can fool ourselves until that darn camera catches us. Hang in there. If I could do this anyone can. Just get back on plan after every slip, because there will be slips….still have them. Marge
I hate to see pictures of myself! But when i do it is a great reminder of why this battle is worth it! you hang in there. we have faith in you!
Alot of times we take inventory of our looks ( I hate cameras too as I have no illusion about how I look)Responsibility yes—but forgetting what is pretty about us, no. I try to remember, I have nice eyes or good skin or or or along with needing to lose alot of weight.
Aren’t photos something?? Flip it around though, they are another way to track your progress….so even though the scale may not be moving and you’re losing inches, a photo can tell you how much better you look. So snap away girlfriend!
