Lose Weight Face Transformation

That’s the idea behind “Visualize You, ” a new app that allows you to take or upload a photo of your face and enter your current height and weight along with your target weight, to then see a photo of what you’d look like if you lost that weight.

Its makers say the photo manipulation accurately represents the actual effects of the weight change, more so than other programs that stretch or pinch images.

To see what you’d look like post-weight loss, enter your photo, height, current weight, and target weight into the app. (Photo: Visualize You)
