Pictures can be the most exciting evaluation
you can do. The numbers and the tape mea-
surements are great, but actually seeing differ-
ences from comparison photographs of your-
self is quite satisfying.
Taking full-length photographs is not difficult,
but to see the maximum difference between
before and after, you should follow these
guidelines.
1) Keep everything the same. Wear the
same outfit, a snug solid color is best,
and have the person taking the picture
stand in the same place, with the same
setting behind you.
2) Make sure you stand against an
uncluttered, light background.
3) Have the person taking the photograph
move away from you until he can see
your entire body in the viewfinder.
4) Stand relaxed for three pictures, front,
right side, and back. Do not try to suck
in your stomach.
5) Interlace your fingers and place them
on top of your head, so the contours of
your torso will be plainly visible. Keep
your feet 8 inches apart in all three pic-
tures.
6) When you get the film developed tell
the processors to make your after pho-
tos the same size as your previous
ones. This way, your height in both sets
of photos is equal and more valid com-
parisons can be made.
