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



Recommended Posts

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!

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.

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.

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!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
