Self Image

[gyre]

My self image seems to differ fairly significantly from my photos but seems to match what I see when I look in the mirror. How's that work

I know exactly what you are talking about. Can't explain it, but it's so true. Something about those static images (that are inevitably taken at bad angles)...

I have the same problem (I'm much less fat - lol I was going to say thinner, but maybe less fat is a better way to say it) than last time you saw me ... but photos always make me feel huge.

Oddly enough I've seen a couple of photos of you that I've thought made you look larger than you are as well.

Sitting down for one is bad.

oh yeah. Especially sitting down and looking over your shoulder at somebody taking the picture from diagonally behind you. Not good at all ...
