Hey guys ,

I been thinking about doing a before pic for my journey, Now ive seen some people have wanted to share EVERYTHING while some dont. Now my problem is ....... i make up for being fat by always being made up(HAIR DONE, NAILS,MAKEUP,CUTE CLOTHES ETC) so if i did end up doing a before in my undies or bathing suit, it wouldnt look like a before pic it would end up looking like fat porn! ive always felt like being fat is not an excuse to look a hot mess. Also you know what they say.. everything posted online will haunt you forever!  SO maybe i can wear a fitted dress kinda spandex so you can see the body, but not all of it...



What did you do??? any suggestions???

God grant me with the serenity to accept the things i cannot change ;  Courage to change the things that i can ;  and the wisdom to know the difference!!!

VANESSA! :)

Hey girl... You have seen my pics right? I am in bra and undies... I blurred my face on the ones that I looked horrid in... it REALLY helps me...

Even if you take these "semi-nude" pics and DON'T share them (just keep them on the computer)... its sooo helpful...

Like Kaila said, I took some nudies (omg, sounds soo dirty lol) in my bra and undies on my home computer.  I am not comfortable enough sharing them.  But it is nice to see the comparisons every month.

Honestly, I just posted pics of myself in my lounge around the house clothes and I had my hair up with no makeup. I just feel that its good to be made up and dressed nice but on this site we are all dealing with the same issues so I figured what the hell who gives a F**K! I look really bad in a couple of them because I was not presentable but its also a constant reminder of how much I NEED to change and a token of who I WAS and it reminds me to never forget where I came from. I am definitely NOT going to be one of those people who gets WLS and then keeps it a secret. I am going to be proud of my WLS and how many struggles I went through to get there...With that said I don't know when I will be comfortable enough with me being so new to the site to bare more skin in my pics. I'm pretty ballsy though so we shall see I guess  Good luck in your decision and dont forget most of us here are not here to judge but to support you!
