I like this one because the weight loss doesn't look as drastic as some other pictures I have seen, which makes me think he is losing weight more slowly... which is often healthier. Well done!

Well done to all these people. And before someone starts saying that this is "fat/overweight shaming"- it is NOT. Obesity should be battled and not promoted. No, you shouldn't be a skinny model, with bones sticking out, stay as natural as you can, but dont be unhealthy with your weight either!

Lose weight if you want to. If you don't, then don't. If anyone tells you that you should lose weight, tell them to go to hell. Your weight, and even your health, is none of their f*****g business.

it's really interesting to see how people seemingly care about your wellbeing when it is about your weight or size. if someone is unhappy with his or her body and decides to work for a change, it is totally okay! at the end we all are working on ourselves in one way or another...or not. but for me it is so false-faced to hide ones personal aversion against so called fat people behind a pretended care about their healthiness. I mean: what is "natural"? what is "healthy"? and why do you REALLY care about all that? I think that this issue is so much more complex...

Sure, I understand that, but also being confortable is a reason to loose weight. Find clothes that fit you, sit on a regular chair, take a run without getting breatheless, etc. Don't take it the wrong way, please, I totally get and share your point. Have a nice day!

As someone who is overweight and needs to lose it (I have lost some already) I love these. They say to me, "you can do it, and the results can be good." It's not just about health or how you look or anything about self-esteem - it is also about just life being easier to deal with if you are slimmer and fitter. That is all I want.

Lyone Fein 8 years ago
First I want to congratulate all of these folks for their hard work and self-discipline. But I also want to mention that I think a number of these pics already show people (especially women) who are TOO THIN. Also some of the comments posted encourage women who look perfect as they are to "keep going". Being underweight is just as unhealthy as being overweight--and it NOT something that our society has a clear grip on. Women (mostly) have body-image issues......meaning we often do not have a clear picture of what healthy weight actually is. Because of the Fashion Industry we think women are supposed to look like skin and bones. But nature actually does not agree. Having about 5-10 pounds of nice curvey flesh is a normal natural thing for a young woman, and this number increases after childbirth, and again after menopause. I am not saying that we should be obese. But there is such a thing as too much weight loss.

What exactly would the point be? That's like celebrating someone because they never ever went hungry in their life. What was their accomplishment? Besides, In most cases, people don't TRY or WANT to be fat, it's just that they can't afford healthy food or their bodies are more prone to gaining weight, and they work extra hard to lose weight.
