Read this. My funny friend the photographer Teresa wrote this. You will probably simultaneously laugh, cry, and said "that's the TRUTH!"

    I loved this. Made me cry because I have very few pics of me with my children. I am going to start taking pics with them. Thank you.

    I hate getting pictures taken of me because I am so self conscious about my *cough**cough* double chin! *cough**cough* Eventually with my weight loss that will go away!

    this is a great post and was ironic because I had just replied to a post that asked the question 'what will you do when you reach goal' with 'I will have professional photos taken of me and my pupster down at the lake'... *groan* & grin.

    Thank you for posting this! I hate it when people take pictures of me. I just don't look at the pictures. I'm thinking now that I need to rethink that effed up philosophy. :flowerforyou:

    It's a very sad post. I remember watching UK "The Biggest Loser", and they were getting people to burn pictures of themselves when they were fat, as if they didn't count for anything at that point in their lives. I found it distressing.
