I like looking at the progress pictures people post, so here's mine.
I can't see a difference and I wanted opinions from other WW members (I'm sure there is a forum for pics). Do you see a difference?
In the Jan 3rd pics (purple and back outfit) I was 211.8 lbs, wearing size 1X shirt and size 16 pants. In the second set of pictures I am 191 lbs, wearing size 12 pants and size M shirt.
There is a definite difference in your face IMO, also in the little curve just under your breasts when facing forward. Your tummy looks smaller in comparison to your chest as well in the sideways pictures *nods*
I think the reason you're having trouble seeing the difference is that the pictures aren't similar enough, but the differences are definitely there. Your face looks really different, and your stomach looks smaller too, in both shots.
i think part of the reason you cant see a huge difference is because your CLOTHING still fits you the same... does that make sense? its 2 sizes smaller, but "fits" your body in the same way...... i dont know if im saying this right, or not... i think you should have EITHER, worn the SAME clothes for both (youd see a HUGE difference) or chosen a different style of clothing... maybe a more form fitting shirt?
your arms, face and neck.. definitely.. also smaller under the breast-- i agree....
but you NEDD to be standing the same, with the camera at the same distance, etc, to get a good side by side comparison!
ETA: also, the smaller you get, the more noticable every pound will be... if i lose 3 pounds im a size smaller and look incredibly leaner...... if i gain 2, i cant button my pants comfortably and my face and midsection are soft and bloaty, for example
there is a difference. It would be easier to see it if the pictures were the same size. Also, it's more difficult to see a difference when you're not wearing form-fitting clothes (which many people do in the most dramatic appearing pictures).
I can totally see a difference in your face and in your abdomen under your breasts. I think it's hard for you to see because of what others said- different sized pictures, and different clothes. Not that I wanna post them here, but I take my photos in the same exact yoga shorts that are form-fitting, and sports bra. Maybe I'll cut the heads off & post them someday, but I can totally see a difference between my 208 and 187 lb pictures. I wish I had taken them a year ago when I was 222. Fantastic job on your weight loss, MrsD!
There's definitely a difference - before you waist was curving our more and now it's curving in! Like others have said, you'd probably see a more dramatic difference if you were a) wearing something similar in each picture and b) wearing something more revealing. Maybe leggings or spandex shorts and a stretchy tank top? Definitely not the most flattering of outfits but that's kind of the point - show every lump and bump and then watch them disappear Congrats on making it to onederland!
Yep i notice a difference too. In the face and stomach for sure. Different to tell on the legs cause of the black pants in the first pics. Also hard to see cause of the distances in the pictures. Your looking great girl. Looking forward to joining you in onederland!!
Oh... looking again, yes... agreed arms too!!
