Part of the Rolfing process is taking a before and after picture, to check how your posture has changed. I kind of forgot all about the pictures. But then last week I ran into my "Rolfer" and the photos popped into my mind. I asked him if he could send my old photos to me via email, and they arrived yesterday.
I couldn't believe them. Are you ready for this?
When this photo was taken I was coming off of two years at a desk job, and it really shows in the curved shoulders, turtle neck, and of course, extra flab. I'll never go back there!And, I know someone's going to ask, so here's a shot I took this morning in my bathroom.
This is the skinniest I've been in my life. And I'm still two months away from Peak Condition.

What were your initial steps that helped you go from the first picture to the second? I'm sure there were many, but any particular changes that stand out? I'm on that journey myself.
Hi Blake
The biggest thing was that I started doing lots and lots of yoga and in general had a fuller life. When you're doing interesting projects and going all over town by bicycle or train, you don't have the inclination to eat big meals all day.
So, I guess I changed my lifestyle as the first step.
Dude: you're turning Japanese. Srsly. The hair, the glasses, the bod. Soon enough Stuff White People Like will feature...uhm...you.
Amazing transformation...I can hardly recognize you in the first photo! Can you? Does it feel like you're looking at you when you see that older shot?? Really amazing.
I recognize me, but it's weird, at that time I didn't feel "fat" per se. I just felt like myself. In the same way I don't feel in really good shape now, just like myself.
