Pictures are great for seeing what we can't see in the mirror. I strongly encourage everyone to take "before" pics. I would say go for the whole body, but that's just me. I took them for myself and seeing the progress in that first month really got me motivated to keep going. Of course, I never imagined I would one day be posting them for the world to see. But by doing that I've been able to help a lot of people that saw themselves in me.
Who knows, Yvonne. Maybe one day you will write a book about your weight loss experience! You will need those pics for the cover!
