Now ‘Visualize’ A Thinner You, Thanks to a New App

Ever wondered how you would look if you shed those extra kilos? A new app has the answers (and the photos)

Have you ever closed your eyes to picture a thinner you, while slogging at the treadmill? Willing yourself to go the last kilometre?

You can put your imaginative powers to rest now.

A new app called ‘Visualize You’ shows a slimmer, post-weight loss version of the user. To generate a thinner version of a photo, the app asks for current weight, height, target weight and a ‘before’ photo of the user.

It then uses algorithms and 3D imaging to transform the photo to show a ‘realistic’ version of the post-weight loss body.

The makers are marketing it as a ‘motivation’ app that allows people to see the effects of weight-loss in a more realistic way. 

To really see whether the app really works, The Quint decided to do a little experiment. By placing Quint staff under the scanner!

Whether the app works or not, the verdict is still pending. But if you’re serious about weight loss, the motivation for it will probably come from within. App or no app, right?

Get the app here on Android.
