I really want to make an effort at losing some pounds over the next six weeks. It's a realistic goal and I know what i need to do. I've been stuck at this weight for a couple of years and though I'm still in the normal BMI range (at the top end though) I'd just like to get back to where I was, several pounds slimmer and feeling fit.

We've just updated the virtual model you see on the right. You can now put your own customized model on your private iGoogle page or on the sidebar of your website. The images always load very quickly because they are now being hosted by Google. It's kinda kooky but fun to see what your cartoonized before/after image might look like. Scroll over the 'start' and 'goal' buttons to see the weight loss transformations.

We hope you enjoy trying it out and would love to get some feedback.
