I know ive made post like this before, but I really do feel pretty defeated, I just dont look anything like my selfies to others, I look pretty awful to be honest, I weight 200 lbs and its been a struggle to loose weight, I know the solution is to see a dietation, and only stock my home with healthy foods and go to the gym maybe but the truth is I can’t really afford that and I dont feel like I can really cook until I move since my mom is kinda defensive over the kitchen. Ive struggled with binge for a while and I just look at photos other people take me and want go vomit, I look so awful. I look like zero months hrt dispite a bit over two years of hrt. My selfies only look okay cause of angles. People have also tried to convince my male fat will redistribute but I know that isn’t true and that it will stay until I get rid of it. Also I apologize for the grammer in this post, I’m writing this as I’m about to mentally explode.

    You know that like none of the photos you see online are accurate right? Like they are all so filtered and edited you would never recognize the person irl.

      My selfies just look too good to be true cause they are and it hurts when I get reality checked by a photo a family member takes of me. It hurts me a ton.

        I think that family member took shitty angle phone camera photo of you, and it is unflattering yeah. Not even artistically good: bad composition, sharp contrast, no details. Its a bad photo.
