Odd Thought

So I was looking at the boards today and just kind of checking things out along with before and after pics and I noticed something.  I see that many of the people get paler in their after pictures.  Maybe I am the only one to notice but I am pretty pale to begin with and if I got much paler I would be a ghost!! LOL  It doesn't really concern me much just noticed and thought I would see if anyone else has noticed that.  Gee you all can't tell I am bored at work today can ya!! LOL  Have a good one Thanks Kristi

Hi  I havent noticed this but you need to remember....our bodies go through alot, and its going to show forsure.  I know the comments I get somtimes really hurt.   How does one lose 140 pounds in just over a year and not look abit beat down? I have heard from the grad board that once you get farther out and maintain you start to even out.

You may be right.  Ill have to take another look'see. Have a super day Linda

Yeah it doesn't really bother me at all if that does happen but I just was noticing it~ And maybe it was the pic's I was looking at and maybe one was summer and the other winter~ Around here it is easy to go from tan to pale!! I don't care if I get ghost white to tell the truth as long as I am healthier that is just fine by me!! LOL  Thanks Linda!!

Had another thought ( like you care )   LOL

 

I know I used to tan like a mad dog to cover the fat....look leaner....... and this summer I didnt feel the need.

 

If that makes any sense!

LOL Linda!  I do care!  I was thinking the same thing!  It makes perfect sense to me!!  Kristi

That's a great observation, Kristi. I am going with the summer vs. fall/winter pics guess.

Sometimes I notice the oddest things!! LOL  It probably is the winter vs summer thing~ As you all can tell I was a little bored yesterday at work~LOL 

HMmmmmmmmmmmmm....I hadn't noticed.  I'll have to check some out.  Very interesting!  Another thing is when we carried that much more weight, I now my face was always more flush as I was always hot.  Now.....I don't get too hot anymore, pretty much run on the cold side now.

You know I never thought of that!!  I bet that may have something to do with it as well!  I know I also was more flush because I was always hot and I too am almost always cold!!  That makes so much sense~ Thanks for that thought~as you can tell I was a touch bored at work on Sunday~now Saturday I wished I was not there!! LOL It was a nut house.  Hope you had a great coffee group and I can't wait to join you all!

There's probably some truth to all of this.   Losing weight fast causing us to look a little pale?  Probably!   Summer tan vs. winter pale?  Sure applies to me!   But the perpetually flushed obese me looking pale because the weight loss has left me perpetually cold?   DING DING DING!!!  I think we have a winner!!!
