Most women/people tend to think they are fatter than they actually are, I am the opposite I don't think I'm that fat till I see myself in a mirror or window or PHOTO!! And then I see how huge I really am!!
Anyone else like this?

I'm 38 weeks preggers at the mo, but going back to pre-baby bump - yes I was the same. I'd look down in the shower and couldn't see much fat, thinking - 'not too bad'.

But then I'd see a photo and omg!! pudgy or what???

I'm a size 14 - used to be a size 10 and I'm determined after this baby to get back to that.


A good friend will bail you out of jail...... A TRUE friend will be sitting next to you saying 'Damn, that was fun'.

Hi Tanya, it sounds like you would be ideal for the show, some years ago i felt like you, i did things like go to Louise Hay courses and then my sister paid for me to go to get my colours done and then an image day with a colour me beautiful consultant, that was so tremendous, as once you buy clothes in the styles and colours you are advised to, it means shopping can be done quickly, wheras i used tojust wander around trying to find things, that will probably help, also with regards to fitness just by walking to work and back i am losing weight, you only need to walk a short distance, i adore my meals so much, i do not do diets, just eating healthy helps, you might find a bit of pampering helps, a new hairstyle, etc, i hope you start to feel better cheers anyway

I have the problem that I look in the mirror and think I look OK, but if I see a photo or video of myself I think I look about 10 years older and 2 stone fatter! Thinking I should have a How to look good naked type photoshoot to see if it will sort the problem out.
