Perception

Have you ever looked at yourself in the mirror and wondered why you look so awful?  I do this ALL THE TIME.  I think I pick out cute clothes in good colors, then I put them on and wonder what I was thinking.  I wonder why I look so huge in them. I wonder why I don't look like my cute, small friends.  I get jealous of them often because I wish I knew their secret to being thin and happy.

I spent two weeks in Europe at the end of May.  We just got back and wow!  We took TONS of photos.  And honestly, there are only a couple that I look at and think, I look like crap.  I mean, at the time, I thought I looked like crap everyday.  Now that I look at the photos, I think, I didn't look as awful as I thought.  I am by no means thin, but the photos aren't as bad as I IMAGINED myself as looking.  Yes, there are a couple and honestly, I am in the same position in all of them, leaning backwards.  I look bad leaning backwards.  But, other than that, I think I look ok in the photos.

What do YOU think?
