Hi everyone

I found this website a while back and have just gone to look at it again and though i would share it!!

It is a weight loss site calle prevention and you can use their weight loss simulator by my virtual model!
You go through the questions and try to get something that looks like you, then put you start weight (or weight now) and your goal weight!! It is so motivating to see the difference, also i have been playing with what my start weight was and what my weight now is to see how far i have come!
I am someone who didn't take a photo or measurements so really only have to go on the scale so seeing something like this is great. I have added the link below showing my start weight and my goal weight!
:laugh:

    I love the virtual model! I used it all the time to see myself at my goal weight. Now every once in a while, I look at it to see how far I've come.

    Totally freaked out when i saw this. I just did it and now I feel like crying up a storm. especially since I weigh-in today and I am 2lbs heavier than when I started 3 weeks ago. *sigh*

    This image actually looks like me and its totally freaky.
  • Thank You!
    I used to go to the site years ago and wanted to do so again but couldn`t remember the name..I have been googling here and there for the last few weeks for it...
  • Thanks Amanda! I can't wait to see my model shrink :)

    I did this and printed out the before and after virtual model and taped them to the inside of my medicine cabinet so when I brush my teeth I see it and it gives me that little boost on days that I may not feel like getting going.

    This is a good tool for a reality check. I plugged in my stats (5'4, 130 lbs.) and it didn't look right to me. To get the model to look "like me" I had to go up to about 150 lbs. I'd hazard a bet it's me -- not the computer. :noway:
