/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

>>7054524
I don't usually self-post but it's worth it if a before & after will motivate anyone.

In December I decided I wanted to get as fit as possible by Otakon this year. I was 210 at least year's and was 140 this year. Even if I feel a little chubby in pictures from this year, I hardly even care because the improvement itself feels so nice and I felt much better in costume.

The picture on the left is Ninamori from last year's Otakon (July) and the picture on the right was taken mid-April. I had to clip the back of the shirt and skirt so they wouldn't fall off. (see: how huge the sleeves are) I've been told I look like an entirely different person.

I really can't stress getting fit and healthy enough, and cosplay can be a really helpful motivation. The effort is really worth it. You can do anything if you want it hard enough and put your mind to it.
