Photo shoot

[stacyg1 136]

I recently changed jobs and my new firm requires a formal photo for the website. My photo shoot is scheduled for tomorrow afternoon. Even after losing 130 lbs, the thought of sitting for a photo is filling me with dread. It's so hard to wrap your head around the "new you" when old habits are so ingrained. I'm just hoping to get through the shoot with a descent photo and without a major anxiety attack. Wish me luck!

Best of luck! I have always avoided having my photo on any promotional material. I don't even have one on my LinkedIn profile. I am actually looking forward to getting to a place where I will feel comfortable getting my photo taken. Having a good professional headshot will give you such a boost. Have fun with it.

The irony on your situation is one we all may feel. When heaviest, we didn't see ourselves as fat and looked at meals and the world from the vantage point of a non-obese person. As we take the serious step of surgery to finally control our weight, we then shift to always thinking we are still heavy, even tho we have had incredible results and only a shadow physically of our former self.

You will do fine. And, hey, please share the pics with us
