I think this is very disturbing but extremely helpful. Thanks for the post.

I use this visual with my clients...you'd be amazed at how much denial I hear from them until I show this picture. Bones do get repositioned into their proper placement. That is why weight loss results in lowered arthritis pain, joint issues, and diseases. Thanks for the reminder of why I am doing this!

OMG... if that doesn't motivate you, I don't know what will. I had an MRI of my cervical spine last year, and was HORRIFIED at the fat on the lower back of my neck...motivation right there...

Sure deters me from ever becoming overweight.
Good motivation for those who are. It did make me feel a little queazy, admittedly. |

I know I was under some serious denial and perhaps still am under some denial. Since I started working out and eating better my quality of life have improved tremendously after just losing 19 lbs out of the 100 I need to lose. Thats 19% of extra fat gone and I feel like I am a teenager again.

QUOTE: Huh. It's also interesting how the muscles look pretty much the same size. Almost all the extra volume in the 250-lbs person seems to be fat. Yeah, that sucks, I was hoping I had more muscle under all this fat from toting it around for three or four years. Instead, the muscle looks sort of distorted and lumpy compared to the skinny pic, but not bigger.
