I was searching the web today and I visited another great blog I'm Such a Scale Whore where I discovered this amazing you tube video titled Lose Weight in Photoshop (Makeover):
My confession is that a few months ago I needed some professional pictures done for a project I was working on and though, by that time, I had already lost a heap of weight, I was still so embarrassed about my 'flab' that I decided to get my 'flab' photoshopped right out of the pictures!
Ok...so maybe that was a bit vain of me, but it made me feel better at the time. The funny thing is that, as I am now, I am pretty much at the 'weight' those photo-shopped pictures last year represented. But we live in a world where we want everything right then and there and I couldn't wait for the 12 or so months that it was going to take to get to this weight so I let 'technology' take care of it. Following are the before and after pictures my 'guilty' little secret.
Dont worry, I never ended up using them but it was fun to see the difference and it gave me hope and belief that I could change and how great I would look.

Thats Why Photoshop is one of the most used editing programs in the world. Honestly I can say the lady in the video looked better before the editing.
As for your pics the changes where subtle enough that I wouldn't know what was up if you didnt tell.
HeHe too true Glen! I luurve PhotoShop.
But you are just too good to be true! To meet a man that likes 'love-handles'!...WOW!
Pitty you are happily married...hehehe me and half my readers would have snapped you up in no time at all. lol
The photo-shopped photo shoot was fun to do. But I don't think I will be repeating the illusion anytime soon. You see, ever so slowly, I am learning to be comfortable and accept myself as I am and not to be embarrassed by my curves. It is taking awhile but I'm getting there.
All photo's of me will be the 'real deal' no matter how unflattering...and that is a promise...lol
