How to Use This Template
The scale only tells part of the story. Progress photos capture changes in body composition that numbers miss, but only if they are taken consistently. This guide covers everything you need to take reliable, comparable photos throughout your GLP-1 journey: the exact lighting setup (natural light, face the window), the three standard angles (front, side, back), what to wear (form-fitting or swimwear, same outfit each time), when to shoot (same time of day, ideally morning before eating), and how to position yourself (feet shoulder-width apart, arms at sides, neutral expression). The printable frame template includes floor markers and a backdrop reference grid so every photo is taken from the same distance and angle.
