How long do you wait to take a progress pic?



Recommended Posts

So I took some before pics just before my surgery and I have not taken any since then. I am down just over 20lbs and I am 10wks out.

If you take progress pics, what do YOU go by? Weight loss goals or time? Just curious.

I took mine about 3 months in when I was down about 40lbs. You can take pictures whenever you like. It's very hard to see your progress. That is mainly why I take pictures so that I can actually see what is going on. There really is no set time on taking pictures. You do it when you feel comfortable doing it. CONGRATULATIONS on your weightloss. Your doing awesome.:thumbdown:

I think the more often the better. I go back and look at them frequently to keep myself motivated. Interestingly, now that I am at goal it is even MORE important for me to look at pictures so I know that I really have accomplished something and don't want to go back to where I was. Sometimes pictures tell a story that a mirror doesn't!!!!

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
