Thighs?


Question Posted Monday June 4 2007, 10:32 pm

Try to bear with me, this might not make much sense.

When I look in the mirror, my legs and thighs look very nice and slim. However, when I physically look down at my legs, they seem fatter. Is it just the angle that I'm looking at them, that make them seem bigger? Or is the illusion in the mirror? Or are they supposed to look the same both ways, and I'm just crazy?

Basically, which view of my thighs is more accurate?

Kudos to anyone who understood that =)
thanks in advance

It's just the angle you're looking from.

oh, i know what you mean! the more accurate view is the one in the mirror (thank god). if you have somebody take a picture of you, that is the same view you see in the mirror. it's the angle that makes them look different sizes.

Don't you worry. AT ALL.

I used to do that as well. I looked down, and my thighs and calves looked really fat! but when i looked in the mirror, they looked slim.

its all about the angle. while looking down, its totally different. (:

yes, i still feel self-conscious about my calves and thighs while looking down, but truthfully, just tell yourself what you see in the mirror, is what you get.

Have you ever tried looking down at your cheeks when you smile? They may seem huge. Looking down at yourself does not give an accurate picture of your body due to the way perspective changes our perception. The mirror is the more representatioal image because you are seeing every part of you in relation to other parts.
