Question regarding old photos

Ok, I noticed something while looking at photos of people on this site before they lost the weight. It is something I have noticed in photos of myself also. I am rarely just sitting without something, be it a child or a pet. I always have something in my arms as if I am trying to hide my stomach. Also I notice I never really look happy in the eyes, although I thought I was happy then. hmmmm.

Well it was the way we always sat - we hated our appearance remember. And have to ever seen a flattering picture of a huge stomach?? Certainly not mine! And although we were as happy as we thought we could be, I don't think we all had a inner happiness like so many of us have now. It is amazing the difference a year makes!!! Now I even don't mind having my picture taken - I don't love it but I don't hate it like I used to either! Jackie

Guilty as charged. PS--I love your posting photo. Lois
