One of my PM Buddies and I were talking just this past week about the fact that when we look at pictures of ourselves or look in the mirror, we are shocked by what others see....... we just don't 'feel' that big?
Rosie talked about this exact thing on her show this week. She said that when she watched herself on Will and Grace, she wondered who that woman was with the big belly -- only to realize that it was her. She said that it is like when an anorexic looks in the mirror and sees a fat person --- some 'fat' people look in the mirror and see what they want to see also - a person not quite so fat (kind of the opposite effect).
That was one of those 'light bulb moments' for me!
I was just wondering if others were also 'looking' larger than what they 'feel'???
