The BFL "After" Pics and an Explanation

Several people complimented me on my orange picture and like a total douchebag I thought everyone was making fun of me. However, I'm not normally one of those people who can't take a compliment. It was just a weird combination of things that caused me to be a little self conscious. See, when I was peeling the orange and took that final picture I immediately checked it on the camera to see if I looked like an a-hole. In fact I did, so I decided to take 4 additional pictures to try to get a better one all of which were worse. So before anyone even made a comment I was already in the mindset that I looked like a total douche, however in my defense it didn't keep me from posting the picture. Anyway as a thanks for the compliments, here for your enjoyment are the other 4 pictures of me celebrating my victory over the orange. I couldn't make up my mind whether to try to convey surprise or joy so you end up with these.











Part II
the after pictures
For your additional enjoyment here are the "after" photos from the first 12 weeks of BFL or the "before" pictures for my next 12 weeks. It's your choice.



Round 2 BFL starts next Monday May 1st. Who's with us? So far it's me, Virgil and OKS Sarah doing a light version.

In all seriousness, STAND UP STRAIGHT. Sorry, I meant to say you look awesome. I am so impressed. Is this BFL diet and exercise, or just diet? I can't remember what you said previously.

I know I need to stand up straighter, I was just trying to be as relaxed as possible so as not to skew the results in favor of the body for life program. Since I was obviously slouched in the originals, I made a point of not standing up straighter or sucking in or any of that.

Mel, the BFL program is both diet and exercise.

It's a good thing my two weeks off is almost over, my pants are getting tight.

and thank you SLC, you rock, now let's make out.

Sarah said...

You need to put the before and after pictures next to each other. Also in your next after pictures, shave off all your body hair, go tanning and oil yourself up to a nice orange color. I mean that's what every other after picture looks like in all the magazines. Congrats, Shop. I'm sooo proud of you!
