Before and after photos

They have been taking photos at work of "before" and "after" crossfit folks... of course they havent actually taken the after shots because the incumbent program is still on-going. I think they have just completed their third week of crossfitting three times a week in the six week program, so its about time for a mid way photo right? I am considering having a before picture taken, with the flabby belly and giant ass... of course since I am not really a true "before" I would hate to not see any progress at all and get discouraged after all the pain and torture and super fun crossfit I am doing. Of course I tease the guys and tell them "I have always been an after, you cant take my before".

I heard also today that the before and after photos you see some places are totally doctored up. Duh. What I didnt realize was they sometimes take the before and after photos the same day without any photoshop.... Apparently who ever is getting the photo is supposed to slouch and look unhappy while letting their flab hang out and basically take a totally unflattering photo. The next photo is the same person smiling and standing straight up and looking thinner and happier. Maybe I will just walk around with my shoulders back and smiling and never have to work out again. Ha ha ha.

Maybe I will just get brave and post a picture of my most hated body part... to "out" my tummy on the world wide web. Maybe if it admits that it has a problem (ice cream) it can learn to change.... (Cue sappy music and my belly button telling the world how it used to be flabby and a slave to the sugar gods until seeing itself posted online it hit rock bottom and decided sugar free was the way to be). Yeah, maybe I have lost my mind a little, but its still kinda funny to me.
