Did you know that your cell phone or camera are great diet allies? Clicking yourself from time to time to follow the evolution of your weight loss can bring more encouraging results than stepping on the scale.

The nutrologist doctor Cristiano Merheb, from Rio de Janeiro, defends the tactic and explains why it works. “Looking at yourself from the outside and comparing current and previous images helps to have a better dimension of the loss of measurements“, he speaks. Do you have a greater incentive to move forward than seeing yourself thinner?

Take pictures at regular intervals, every four weeks for example, in order to allow time for real transformations. always photograph yourself with the same clothes, which helps highlight the results. Make the pictures in same distance and positionso as not to privilege any part of the body (nor hide the changes achieved).
