Default Featherweight Goal Photos?

Hi All!

I am just wondering if you guys know any place to see goalphoto's from featherweights. At the goal-board here it's a lot of people that lost majorly. Which is inspiring and so awesome to see. But for us girls who are working within/around the normal BMI range it's not like that's how our changes will appear.

Hope to get some replies! Would love to see what 17lbs on someone my weight looks like! Hihi.

Someone here might know... but there's a website somewhere where you can see real women at different sizes. So... like you can select medium frame, 130 lbs, 5'3" tall or whatever and you'll get different photos of women at that size. I think it's really interesting to see how everyone is different, even if their height/weight is the same.

ETA: Found it! It's called mybodygallery.com

What is a goal photo exactly? Is it a picture of you or of someone else?

banananutmuffin: i know about that site - it's pretty cool to see, but I am just wondering about how different a featherweifght might look between starting and goal. You know what i mean?

Jubilee: i mean like in the goal-photosection on these boards. Where osmeone shows either their mini-goal pic compared to their starting pic or their end-goal pic.

I think there are a few of what can be considered featherweights goal posts:

Dorian's goal post
ungluued's goal post
ange82much's mini-goal post

I know in my own goal post I've got pictures of me in a little into the overweight range, in the healthy bmi range and then further down into it.

ETA: Nevermind, just saw your edit about mybodygallery.com :P

I have seen a lot of people with animated bodies on showing cartoon women before and after their goal. Do you know what I mean? I was just wondering where everyone was getting them from? I know it's hardly scientific but I'm just curious. :P

Would it be worth having a progress/goal photos thread pinned in the featherweights forum? Maybe someone should ask the admins. I know I'd definitely find it inspiring, especially as it gets harder and harder the closer you get to goal, what does everyone else think?

I've seen mybodygallery and think it's a great site but there's fewer and fewer examples the lower you go, especially for us shorties.

Do you talk about this one ?

For me it's not working, the cartoon just don't have my shape, and my bodyfat seems lower. But it's fun to play with it

Thanks for the link to My Body Gallery it's really interesting to see how different people look at the same size. It has also made me rethink my goal weight!
