So, I was thinking swallowing pride and getting the gal to do before and after pics and putting them up on here.....is it motivational? Absurd? Gross? Weird? Creepy? thoughts? I was thinking of wearing a bikini i (used) to look good in.

    i took some before pictures on monday (i took them myself because i couldn't gather the guts to ask my bf to do them for me, stupid, i know)

    what i did was i put my best bra on and some black underwear and took pictures from the front, side, back, and flexing, and put them side by side in a picture document.

    i look at them daily, but i'm too scared to post them up here lol

    it definitely does help me to get my *kitten* in gear, knowing that one day i can take after pictures!!!
  • my saggy baggy bits are in my photos in here. I took some the other day. I think it will be a good deterrent to stay on track even after you're finished.

    I wish I had before photos. Take them. You can always go back and remove them but you can never go back and take them.

    I have a before pic saved in my phone that NO one will ever see!
    I do like the idea though, makes me feel like i've accomplished something to see the differance

    I am going to get dh to take some of me in leggings with a t-shirt ( most of my t-shirts r snug) that way i can wear them & see the difference.

    I'd recommend taking them. Even if you don't post them on here and just use them for your own personal motivation - it's very helpful. I took mine at the beginning of this year, and to be honest, it was hard to look at them at first, but now that I can compare them with recent pictures and it's extremely motivating for me personally. I'm still unsure if I will ever post them, but that's something you can decide later. :)
  • Wow that takes guts! i want to take before and after pics but id be worried if someone in my family saw them :O

    And id defs be too scared to post them up here lol
    Good luck x

    thanks guys! i did post them on here and they ARE awful (shudder lol) luckily i dont think any of my family is on here and definately NOT my bf! :flowerforyou: I hope i can see improvements. I feel like when i look at pics of me from a year ago or two i dont look that different and people say i "carry my weight well" (btw is that a compliment??? jeez) so i hope i do!
