I take pictures. OK I generally think I look fat in pictures, however when I put pictures from different stages side by side I do see the difference.
I've looked fat to myself since I've been 17 years old, I look at myself in the mirror daily (several times in fact) and my perception is always the same, because I'm focusing on my trouble spots (and probably always will).
Part of my growth has been in accepting my beauty regardless of weight, and also embracing the shape of my body, accepting and working with my curvature (BTW : Right now I think J-Lo, Britney & Beyonce, because I've been fighting those 'bootilicious' curves all my life..now they're actually fashionable , go figure).
But the pictures do help me maintain perspective.
BTW : For us ladies who fight that one bulge of fat or row of cellulite, GET OVER IT. Get in the gymn, get it as firm as you can then enjoy it, don't worry about it.
