I know it's a silly fear. Every Before and After picture I've seen, the person always looks so much better (and happier) in the Afters. Yet if you've never been as slim as your goal is, it's really difficult to imagine your body to be that size.
My big excuse in High School for packing on the extra pounds is because I was absolutely convinced that my rib cage was abnormally large and that I'd look like a freak if I got any slimmer. I know it's (probably) untrue, but that's still how I see myself.
Measuring body frame, via the whole wrist thing (google "body frame calculator"), it says I have a large body frame (I measure my wrist as 6 inches, and I'm 5'0" tall) and I really don't want a large body frame Though I have no idea how a large and small body frame differ without the weight (I just hate the idea of being 'large' even after I lose all the weight that I want to lose--not to mention you certinally don't want to be large if you're only 5 feet tall!!)
Though if I do it via the fingers overlapping method, then I have a small frame. And that'd be awesome. (I reeeeally want to be just under 100lbs! And I don't know if I'd be able to do that with a large frame.)
This is a stupid thing to worry about. I know. But I can't help it! I want to know what I'll look like now!
Is anyone else worried about the slim and trim versions of yourselves--especially those of you who have never been as slim as you're aiming to be?
