Anyone know how to get a FREE wight loss projection image??

I had seen these from time to time and would LOVE the extra motivation. Unlike some people on here, I have been overweight my whole life- recently obese- but was never considered thin. So I'd LOVE to see a visual of what I'd look like when I hit goal weight. Even if it's not free, could anyone make a recommendation? I've invested this much, why not a few more bucks, right?? I just want to make sure it's a good one. Any suggestions would be awesome. Thanks!

I've never heard of such a thing but am curious now that you've mentioned it.....

Prevention.com used to have one, but no more. :-( I'm looking for one, too.

Oh, I forgot!

iGoogle has one that's not as good as the Prevention.com one was.

This is one I had before, also.

MyVirtualModel.com

It looks like MyVirtualModel.com works, but you can't *DO* anything with the model except shop. Still neat to see. I put my starting weight, then set my current weight and it was neat to see the model change. :-)

Let's see if this works -- this is "me" at 197 and then 181 and then goal (Don't know if that's too skinny for my taste or not -- I'll have to wait and see):

Hey Sawyer, How did you make the collage??

And by the way, I figured out how to put my face on the model. It's pretty creepy though...If you tell me how to post it, you can see for yourself! haha!

I use a program called Irfanview (irfanview.com) that lets you make a panorama image out of separate images. I just did screen shots of the model and cropped them.

If you do use the program, it's under Image, Create Panorama Image, Horizontal, Add Images, Create, Save.

BTW, our own faces on the fake model DOES sound creepy!

OK, I DID IT!! I can't figure out how to post the picture but it is totally worth it to go to my profile and look at my albums to see it. How creepy is it with a real face?!?!?! Hahaha!

Awesome! Yes, creepy! Ha ha. Here it is! I just got the URL by right-clicking "View Image" -- I put mine in my sig, but trying to get the right size so it's not obnoxious! haha. Nice progress, BTW! Go you!
