It is a sad indication of our society values that we don't like photos of ourselves as we actually are, we want them to be the 'perfect' us.

If someone took a photo of me and I didn't have a double chin my first reaction would be "Who's that?"

BTW The answer to the original question is: Lose weight and then have another photo taken.

I don't know if this was supposed to be an attempt at humor or what! If so, you did a poor job of it. Sometimes these smart-ass comments sound funny in your head, but they come across vicious when printed out. I've been guilty of this myself. Please consider this in the future. Just food for thought.

filemanager, I think your edit looks very good. It appears very natural.

Great edit FileManager! One last thing you could to with it is go into photoshop, and with the burn tool (10% or so) go in and add a shadow under the chin, that'll "strengthen the jawline"
