  • Oh wow!

    I actually feel like that. 145 here I come

  • That is really really freaky. It's a great motivation for me to lose the rest of the weight!!!! Thanks for sharing.
  • Wow, that is really inspiring to me. The woman on the left can't even stand in normal alignment; and her organs!

    Now, this is very unscientific, but I have often noticed women who seem similarly obese, and some just look a lot more comfortable than others. I wonder if their scans would look different? If different body shapes handled the weight differently?
  • How inspiring!
  • Yikes! That image will stay with me.
  • Wowzer. That's eye-opening. I hated that my arms bowed out like that when I was at my heaviest. They hang straight down now!
  • omg wow. Im really glad I seen this. I kind of want to print it out and put it on the refrigerator at home! lol
  • Okay, nobody freak out but I just made that picture the wallpaper on my laptop.

    It's almost my starting weight and exactly my goal weight...
  • I just made it my wallpaper too! ha!
  • No wonder my ankles hurt! Wow! Very eye opening!
  • I too would like to print that out. That post should be a "sticky".
  • WOW. That is just insane, although it puts my body in a whole new light.
  • So, looking at these women, it seems that as you lose weight, the "inside" part of you would shrink too? Because in the obese woman, the inside of her body cavity is much bigger than the thin woman--why is that?

    I've wondered where all this fat is supposed to come off of my body from--it would make sense if some of it was hidden, I just don't understand what that is.
  • Oh yeah, you gain a lot of internal fat around the abdominal organs. That's the most dangerous kind.
