Virtual weight loss
How would you look 10 pounds thinner? Twenty pounds?
You can get a peek at WeightView.com, a free digital weight loss tool. Upload a photo of yourself, tell how many pounds you'd like to use and WeightView will send you an image of yourself at your goal weight. You can hang it on your refrigerator (instead of that motivational photo of Jennifer Aniston or Matthew McConaughey) or even use it as a screen saver.
Or, as the folks at WeightView say, "Why use a photo of a celebrity as your body aspiration, when you can use yourself as your own?"
WeightView also has a new Facebook community and application at apps.facebook.com/weightview where you can track your weight-loss progress and buddy up with others for support.
