Check out this site.


You can create a virtual model of yourself. You put in your height weight and some other features.


It creates a virtual model of how you look. It is an eye opener, so beware. Basically I thought I looked better then I do.(I had the same reaction when I took before a while ago-haven't taken them again)


What's cool is that you can see how clothes will look on you. If you are like me, trying on at the store is NOT my idea of a good time.


Let me know what you think of it.

It won't work for me, apparently I'm not "proportionate" enough for it.

Don't feel bad-- I tried it too, and the only one I could get to work was the swimsuit trials for Prevention. I guess I'm not the right "proportions" either. I will be someday though. In the meantime, this seems like it would be a much more useful tool if those of us in the plus-sizes could "try on" clothes on the computer too.

Actually my model looks pretty good in my eyes. I wish I looked like THAT.. her skin is so toned all over!


I was surprised that I could get into the normal size clothes as well. Apparently for 5'5'' you can go up to 215 with the normal sizes, so I'm barely there.

Sorry that it is not working for some of you. I was playing around with the one in prevention and it says that it will do a weight up to 350 pounds. I just thought it was a cool thing and wanted to share.


Sorry if it didn't work out for you :(

If you're looking for a reality check the prevention swimsuit one is the way to go! I don't know about you, but seeing "me" in a swimsuit IS a wake up call .. even if she doesnt' have all of my rolls
