I need some dramatic results pictures

[bdubb]

My sister is well over weight for her age and her bf is even worse. She's not a gaint blob as some people are, but she needs to lose a lot in her lower body. I have no problems with her being large, but it has gotten to where she is bigger everytime I see her and my entire family is beginning to worry about when it will stop because of possible health issues that could come from it in the distant future.
I have seen some photos of people at different times on boards like this who had dramatic changes in their bodies. I haven't been able to find what I want on this boards picture forum, but I know some are out there. I don't want any model from ads or any of that crap, but real people that lost a lot of weight without using drugs since she is against that in every way.
I just want to be able to show her some pictures as to what is possible and maybe get her in touch with some people that can give her some direction and motivation on a board such as this.

bdubb,

Your heart is in the right place which is great.

Realize you can only help those folks that will help themselves.

A word of caution on the pictures. Best guess is your sister has seen those pictures before and even has some what of a realization of things.

Lots of folks when they are overweight, know it is hard to believe, don't FEEL as if they are overweight. An example my brother in law last week asked about health and nutrtion, he's 37 and is 6'1" and now weighs in at 225 lbs. , his ideal weight for frame and muscle tone is 190, he's put on 35 lbs in last 3 years, he knew he was putting on a little yet when the insurance company dropped by with a scale and he got on it.

He knew he was heavy because the last two years he starte wearing more sweatshirts, sweaters, and shirts not tucked in.

It took a shock of SEEING that number on the scale.

So, even though everyday saw himself in mirror it just did not click. And this is fairly universally with folks who were once in decent shape and now aren't, since it comes on slowly and they adjust to the sight they almost don't see it, and in their minds they are still young and slim, and then of course there is always someone heavier.

Having said that, people generally accept communication in three ways.

1. Visual - see
2. Auditory - hear
3. Kinesthetic - feel

One of these senses is usually dominant and that is the best way for them to accept and process information.

So, if she is not a visual person showing pictures might not have big impact. If she is auditory, the best would be CONSTANT everyday verbal re-inforcement of what she is doing right, along with CONSTANT education. Might have to tell her verbally 10-15 times, everyone has a repetition scale that's theirs, about fat grams and carbs, and smaller more frequent portions.

And most folks that are auditory like to know why.

If she is a feeler type of person usually she would be highly sensitive. If this is so again constant re-inforcement, yet, what you would want to do is almost DE-SENSITISE her. She might make comments like, oh didn't feel like walking today, didn't feel like eating salad, really felt I needed a cookie, i'm overwhelmed and it's getting to me so wanted a reward, etc.

What have to do here is try and make her understand what the normal feeling is for most folks, ie, she might be too sensistive, yet you don't want to say that cause it's negative, you want to point out, hey no one like eating clean all the time it is not easy for us, yet the benefits of pleasure of health and great body
far outweights any short term pain.

Anyways that some info in general, it's great you care that much to help her and try, that's being a great brother.

Hoped That Helped
Good Luck
