Hit the six week mark today so I put together a fresh side-by-side photo update. The difference is honestly wild, especially around my face, and seeing the two pictures next to each other makes the hard weeks feel worth it. Curious how often others are doing photo comparisons, because I'm tempted to keep it to monthly going forward.
Comparison update posted today at week 6
Monthly is plenty. I did every two weeks early on and drove myself nuts hunting for changes that weren't there yet, the gaps have to be wide enough for the camera to actually show you something
I took one at week 2 and then forgot about it, and when i finally did another at week 10 the face difference was the part that got me too. Monthly seems smarter than weekly, i'd just end up staring at the same photo.
Monthly is plenty. I did weekly early on and deleted most of them because nothing had moved yet.
Monthly sounds about right to me, weekly shots just show bloat and lighting changes. I take mine on the same day each month in the same spot by the window
Face was my first tell too, way before anything else moved. I shoot mine every four weeks now, same spot by the bathroom window, mostly so I stop staring at the mirror hunting for changes that aren't there yet.
Face was my first tell too, and I wish I'd locked the same angle from the start because my early shots are useless for comparing.
Monthly sounds right to me. I took them weekly early on and the small changes just blurred together, monthly gave me a real gap to look at
Monthly sounds right. I did weekly early on and just ended up staring at the same face in every shot.
I'm at about the same spot as you and the face is the only place I can see anything yet. Monthly would probably save me from squinting at photos every Sunday looking for changes that aren't there.
Face changes showed up way before anything else for me too. I keep my comparisons to every 8 weeks or so, mostly because I got tired of squinting at photos taken four days apart.
Monthly seems right, i was taking them way too often early on and the tiny changes just made me restless. Do you keep them in a private album or somewhere you stumble on them by accident?
I went weekly at first and it just made me nitpick stuff that wasn't really there yet. Monthly sounds right, and the face being the first place you notice tracks with my own experience
I take mine on the first of the month so the gap is always the same, and the face shots are the only ones that ever really show me anything.
Monthly sounds right. I did weekly at first and drove myself nuts hunting for changes that weren't there yet.
honestly i take mine on the first of the month, same spot by the window, and it's the only reason I caught how much my jawline changed. Weekly shots had me squinting at nothing.
Same lighting every time is the only way these are useful. My first pair had different angles and I spent ten minutes hunting for a difference that was actually just the camera
I only take mine every eight weeks or so, mostly because the in-between weeks all look the same to me and I'd just get twitchy staring at them.
tbh i did weekly at first and deleted half of them because the angles were all over the place. Monthly plus one fixed spot by the window is what i settled on
honestly six weeks feels early for a face change but mine was the same, cheeks thinned out before anything else moved. Monthly is plenty, weekly just had me squinting at nothing
