That's Not Me

Have you ever said that? Outloud?

I had a few pictures taken in the past week where I literally laughed and said "That's not me!"

Then last night, at a gala ball in Melbourne last night and apon arrival, we took this picture. 
Franchisee gala ball, Melbourne
These were some others,  taken last Wednesday as I was about to leave for a Bendigo Cup Party.  I  was mucking around with my new phone application (android app - Vignette LOVE IT!) 



Having a couple of other franchisees at our table last night all curious and asking questions left right and centre was interesting. Hearing them say "I just can't picture you overweight (HELLO! Still 100kgs! Still fat!) was bizarre but made me stop and listen to how they viewed me. Reading Tullys latest post earlier this afternoon made me think about peoples reaction to us. 

I've always labelled myself as a fat redhead (amongst nicer terms, I'm not that hard on myself) but even realising that I'm not a natural redhead anymore is a wee mind twist.  I guess starting to realise that I soon won't be the most unhealthy, overweight person will also be something to get my head around. 

Most of my 'that's not me' moments have been for the opposite reasons, feeling amazing, then seeing a picture of myself and crying because I didn't realise I looked so bad. It's nice to have that reaction now for the opposite reasons. :)
