Before-After Time Lapse?

[MAR1984]

Just wondering if anyone has done this? Its something I've always wanted to do, but when I was losing weight, I didn't think about it, and when I was thinking about it, I couldn't motivate myself to lose weight.

I think I'm going to start now, but I wish I would have started at my biggest weight. Anyways, I'm going to take a pic of myself every day or at least once a week, and then after amassing a bunch of pictures, run them all together flipbook style with some movie making program I don't yet have (unless windows movie maker can do it) or maybe an animated .gif or something.

Sort of fully encompasses the idea of "before, after, and in between", and IMO would look pretty cool as well. Maybe I'll take the first pic tonight, and I'll keep you all updated of the progress of this project in this thread. I encourage anyone else to give this a try as well, or share your vids if you've made them

I haven't done a time lapse...It's taken me 22 months to get to where I am so far and I am not done yet...That would be one long video....

However I am going to make a video when all said is done. I have already picked out the music for it. hah I also want to have a rocky moment and run up a sh*t load of stairs at the end. I'm in STL so the arch stairs it is. lol

Good idea! -wants to do it too- I started out at.. 234. Im not 224. I dont have pics from when i was 234.. but its better now to start than never, right?

I have been taking pictures every month wearing the exact same thing. So far I have 4 pictures. I think it would be so cool to do something like this!

I don't have a picture at the highest weight, but I have taken pictures (front, side and back) twice so far - last week and this week. I can't really see much difference so far but I can tell the clothes aren't quite as snug. I do plan to continue with the weekly pictures though.
I forgot who it was but while reading the forum here I seen someone who had marked their pictures with the weight; I think I will be doing that as well as a reminder.

Hey, it's never too late to start! Just get started! And don't say "maybe i will start".. It should be "I will..." and then, take action immediately! If you keep saying tomorrow, the day will never come...

Personally, I think taking pics everyday will not give you very significant difference. Once a week is a better choice.

And set reminders to take the picture every week on a specific day and specific time!

Good luck!
