1. A method for viewing an image of a predicted visual change to a user'"'"'s current body shape comprising:
- a) manually measuring specific areas on a human body from a plurality of individuals having various body shapes, heights, weights, genders, and ages over a time frame in response to changes in weight;
b) classifying the various body shapes of the plurality of individuals into a predetermined number of body shape categories;
c) storing the measurements and classified body shape category of each individual in a database;
d) acquiring an image, with a camera, of the user'"'"'s current body shape;
e) determining a body shape category for the user'"'"'s current body shape;
f) selecting a desired weight for the user'"'"'s current body shape;
g) modifying the image of the user'"'"'s current body shape by predicting a visual change to the user'"'"'s current body shape at the desired weight based on the determined body shape category for the user'"'"'s current body shape and how the measurements of the plurality of individuals changes in response to changes in weight for the determined body shape category;
h) acquiring a new image of the user'"'"'s body shape at a future time and comparing the new image of the user'"'"'s body shape with the modified image of the user'"'"'s current body shape to learn how the user'"'"'s body changes in response to a change in the user'"'"'s weight and refine the prediction.

Abstract
This is a method of showing to a person a visual change to his or her current human body shape. Historical data is used to show how human body shapes change in response to change in weight and measurement of the bodies. A user takes a picture of his or her current body and then selects points on the picture where change is desired in response to desired weight change. The user then views a picture of how his or her desired change will look on his or her current body shape by altering the picture using the historical data.
