Need extra motivation to lose fat? Take upside-down selfies.

A fitness enthusiast gained a few too many extra pounds, and started going to a nearby gym a few extra times per week. He now goes before work, after work, and also on Saturdays. At the end of his workouts, he likes to use the gym's inversion table.

An inversion table, for those who don't know, is a board that you back up against and then you lock your ankles into two cuffs at the bottom. The board then rotates, allowing you to lie at a modest decline, extreme decline, or even completely upside-down. The ankle cuffs hold you in place, allowing you to simply hang there and counter the normal effects of gravity on your body.

One day, while in the upside-down position, he decided to take a selfie. Keep in mind that everything on the body that is normally down was now up, and everything that is normally up was now down. When he took the upside-down photo and turned it upside-down, so that it looked like it was taken standing up, the face and body gained the appearance of what he might look like if he continued with an unhealthy lifestyle.

If you've never done this before, and if you would like extra motivation to lose fat, give this a try.
