MonkeyGirl-
On the photo thing, YES! I used to do that all the time until I realized that I would only take pictures when I felt good about myself. When I felt healthy, attractive, etc. I would only LOOK at the pictures when I didn't feel so good about myself and I would sit there and wonder what happened, what went wrong, and everything else horrible.
SO~ to combat that, I started taking pictures even on days where I felt meh or when I was sick. I take them with no intention of posting them anywhere. I take them because I know I will need them on a day when I'm wondering How on earth I let myself go and I can look at those other pictures and see that feeling/looking like junk is just temporary and that I won't feel awful forever. (usually all of these feelings start to happen during allergy seasons and I look and feel terrible for weeks to months at a time.)
