Hating pictures

I use to love taking pictures and now I hate it! I mostly hate the way I look in them! It's so frustrating to see a picture and think, "that can't be me!"


Anyone in the same boat?

    Yes. Hate pictures. But then again, they do give a better picture of reality...I swear that is not what I see in the mirror.

    Yeah, particularly this year. So doughy. Plus, I'm a performer and on stage a lot. People take pictures of me right before I go to sing a big note and it looks like I'm a VERY hungry woman about to eat the mic. Anyway...it's better now!
  • YES! I feel like I look somewhat attractive in the mirror and then I see pictures and I look 20 lbs heavier :( I hope it's just the camera.... very depressing. I rarely see a picture of myself that I like anymore.

    My pic is recent. I was 20 pounds heavier at the start of June so I'm talking about pictures from before, and even that first month.
