  • Should I change my before pic?

    I've been thinking that my before pic isn't the best representation of how big I got. But it's the only full length digital pic I could find. Should I keep it the way it is or use one of the three below? (and which one?) Are any of these pics more honest and descriptive of where I was? Thanks

    Yes I'm eating a smore in the picture, how do you think I got so fat?

    Jim if you change the one, you should put in a recent one that is a similar pose if you want the comparison. I think the one on the amusement park ride works for this time of year if you want a "vote".

      I think the picture you are currently using is fine. We all look slimmer standing up. If you want to use the pictures where you are sitting, then I would change your current pictures as well, then the comparison would be of a similiar pose. If you do change the pictures I think the second picture would be a good choice. You look great BTW!

        If we're just voting here I would also pick the amusement park ride but only because it's the brightest. However, the middle one is good to because it looks like you're saying "No pictures!" Like a lot of us did. I hear you on how hard it is to find a before picture. If I hadn't been running from the camera all the time I would have had more to choose from.

          I think you should slip into a speedo or biking shorts and post that one! Then again nude pics would work.
