Ugh Back Fat
So my cousins just sent me a bunch of pics and I have ridiculous back fat in them. Here are two of them.
It's kind of annoying, but I knew it would happen beforehand because I'm a chubster and I wore a strapless dress. The top one looks especially ridiculous.
I hope my photog got good pics sans back fat. I made a concentrated effort to stand with my back straight most of the time, but in pic 1 I had just gotten married and pic 2 was after ~1.5 hours of straight picture taking so I was not a happy camper.
I don't even know why I'm posting because I'm not looking for any "aw it's not that bad" and quite honestly, it's over and done with and there's nothing I can do about it. It's just freaking annoying.
On the plus side, H is so handsome. And I LOVELOVELOVE my bouquet. And we look really happy in the first pic.
Re: Ugh Back Fat
i know you're not looking for people to say "oh you look great, dont worry!"
BUT...
you do look great. the first thing people (not you) are going to see is a beautiful smiling bride, a handsome happy groom, and the happiness that you are both exuding.
you will always look at the flaws first, but just remember nobody else looks at that. if they were studying your pictures for hours then someone might say "oh, that looks off" or something, but honestly, nobody is going to see those things except for you.
you look beautiful. i especially love the first picture.

Yeah, I'm being totally whiny. I'm putting some up on facebook.
PM me with your facebook name if anyone wants to see, I'm like a facebook ghost.
I had plenty of back fat and arm fat going on too...so you're not alone. I notice it because it's me and I look at them over and over again, but those just looking through photo won't notice it.
Like Shauni said, they'll notice what a glowing bride you are with your dashing new hubby!
for realzies on this???
you're a ginger--- no one is paying attention to your "back fat"..... you're hair is BLAZIN homie ;oP

I must agree 100% w/ Shauni. I had all kinds of fat pushing out of places that looking back, I think looks ridiculous. BUT BUT BUT I don't know how many people told me that night how gorgeous, beautiful, or amazing I looked. And at the time I did! Even though my pics have fat busting out everywhere (hello boobies about to fall out at any given moment), I felt amazing and that's all that matters. I will look at my pics forever and critique the shiit out of them, but I will also ALWAYS remember how great I felt about myself at that exact moment in time.
exactly. I sure as hell wouldn't have.
