I plan on taking before pictures and then take them after each cycle to see the difference throughout the program as well as an after picture......at least that's the plan....
Same here. I'm not sure I will post them on the forum

I plan on doing B&A's as well. I'm dreading taking the befores because I know i'll compare them to my "afters" from two years ago and wonder wtf happened. Oh well, I did it once I can do it again right?

I finally did it....
All this talk about before and after pictures and doing the 6month program on the STS series, has movtiated me to get going. I took my before pics; one in my current workout wear with all sides (front,back, left side and right side) and the other in my "jeans that I want to fit in" jeans. Not a pretty picture! I could barely fit the jeans over my knees What was I thinking when I bought those damn jeans!
So I plan on following the STS plan for 6 month, doing each week twice before going on the next week. Altough, I have lost 18 pounds since October on the Weight watchers plan, I gain 6 of them back during the holidays. I also took my weight and measurements. I am not sure if I will post any number or pictures, it all depends on how I look in 6 months. I am hoping to have great results with the STS program..Veronica

I'm planning to take before pictures, but will only post them if I get to a good after picture. It will probably take longer than 6 months with the amount I have to lose. A few year's ago I tried the Body for Life contest and took the pictures with the newspaper to verify date for the before picture. Three months later I took after pictures. I probably had lost 20 pounds, but could not see any difference in pictures. Obviously I had not found Cathe yet. I asked my DH if he saw any improvement. Being diplomatic, he said he thought I had one less roll of fat on my back. Yes we are still married.
I can do limited cardio because of my knees. Diet and sts will have to do the rest.

I just loved your comment. My husband thinks he's being a diplomat when I ask "How do I look in this?" and he doesn't answer. Well, by not answering, I actually get my answer and its "I didn't want to say this, but go pick out something else to wear".

Me too... But gotta love a husband who won't let you go out looking bad...
Man, "one less roll...." Ouch! How bad did you hurt him? LOL Dela Thanks for this thread.
I originally posted that I would not post pictures until I had good after pictures. But I had a revelation. I look like this all the time. My DH, family and friends have to look at me all the time. Why shouldn't I have to look at me. I am 5' 2" and 167lbs. The pictures were terrible but quite accurate.
As soon as I find out how to post pictures, I will start a new thread with them. This time I really feel that with Cathe and STS I will succeed.

I took before, 30, 60 and 90 day pics while doing the X. It was the best thing I ever did! It doesn't matter if you never share them with a single soul but you should definitely take them! It will help you to see results you'd never notice by just looking in the mirror!!!!! IMO they tell the tale better then scale and measurements too!
