    I like this idea.. But I don't know if I would ever have the nerve to post a pic of myself in a bathing suit.

    It sure would be nice to see a visual of the progress month to month.
    ^^^ agreed. NO ONE wants to see this in a bathing suite lol

    Just posted my Jan, Feb, Mar and April on my profile. Not comfortable posting on an open forum but love the idea! I will post a progress pic each month to my profile.

    Bumping this...I'm not sure I'll be able to get a picture right away...but since I did it last year, I may as well go for it this year.

    I also have the added motivation of major surgery on my arm, and about 72 other kinds of life issues limiting my gym time/ability...so all the incentives I can get, I'll take lol.

    I actually tried to restart the old "swimsuit competition" thread about 2-3 weeks ago, so I DO have a set of start pics and another set taken yesterday for comparison, though I don't think I could call it "progress" as the scale and some measurements went up (darn ToM, plus some skipping the gym). More motivation to do better next time I guess :ohwell: I'm a bit OCD about tracking everything... the only good news seems to be that my gain for the most part went towards making me curvier :happy: Now if I can just firm up the other bits! My goal is to get back down to 18-19% body-fat.

    This is a LOT harder than I thought I'd be. I've been trying to get up the courage for four days.

    Here goes nothing (and by nothing I mean all-of-my-obese-III-in-a-bathing-suit-on-the-internet).
