Who is that girl?

So my daughter's come and tell me that my ex-husband said "tell your mom she needs a new Facebook Photo. That doesn't even look like her anymore." (btw - we are not even FB friends)

A few weeks ago we all went out to dinner to celebrate my youngest birthday and it is the first time he has seen me in about 6 months or so. We are on decent terms, and he made the comment "you look good"... Externally I was like "oh thanks". Internally I fist pumped!

So I decide tonight maybe I should take a new pic since mine is about 5-6 months old. Every time I took a self picture i was like "that is not me!" lol It doesn't look like me AT ALL!

I can't believe how much different I look to myself. In fact in most of the pics I tool (and there were about 450) I thought I looked like a guy in drag! :laugh: :laugh:

Morale of the story... losing weight makes you look like a guy in drag. Just kidding! Morale of the story really is, when you don't think you look different, try a picture. They don't lie (except maybe when they make you look like a guy in drag :huh: )

P.S. Can someone please let me know if I do look like a guy in drag in this pic because that ish will come down if I do!

    You look fabulous! Beautiful. With shining tresses and a captivating smile. It's the smile in your eyesthat tells all! Your ex is a bloomin' idiot, but you already know that.

    HaHa! Thanks for calling me hot, but I know for a fact that he was not wondering that. Pretty sure he is very happy with his new boyfriend... :laugh:

    :) I think if a gay man complimented me that would be a huge NSV, ex or no ex! I understand what you mean, I've said the man-in-drag thing before about myself, but really, you look like a woman, and you look GOOD! You've done an amazing job to lose so much weight.

    Honestly thank you all sooooo much! I really was unsure about how I looked in the picture. I figure at least one person would have said "dude looks like a lady" if it was bad, so thanks! I still do a double take when I see it on my home page like, um yeah that is not me! :noway:

    TracLC, I was about to say listen here young lady you are beautiful and then I notice you were almost 10 years older than me and was like WTF! GEEZ girl you look effing fabulous! Seeing your picture I seriously thought you were in your earlier 30's. No joke!
