Study: Looking To Shed Pounds, Take 'Bikini Shots'
PITTSBURGH (KDKA) – Dieters who take photos of themselves in a bikini are more likely to shed pounds according to a new study.
The study from the University of Alicante in Spain says that keeping a photo diary of how you look will keep you motivated to continue dieting.
"What patients want is a photo, rather than cold number," according to Professor Mercedes Rizo Baeza.
