Wussypuff,
I most definitely agree that you should take pics. They may want to make you cry when you see them but it is very motivating! I had my bf take mine and I was in my bathing suit. I saw them and was shocked at the "side chunk" as I affectionately call it! They got me motivated and I felt GREAT when I saw the after pics because the pics really track your progress!!

Congrats on passing the exams---- I remember fondly (ok, not so fondly) finals week!! ugh!! Lots of all-nighters and lots of cappochino!!!
