I bought a silver lyre tail Molly today. The lady at petsmart said she was pregnant. What do you all think? Thanks!

Here's a new picture. Can anyone see a difference? Does she look any closer? Thanks

She doesn't look pregnant to me, I do not see any visible sign of a gravid spot.
When a livebearer is pregnant she will develop a dark area near her anal fin, this is called a gravid spot. As the pregnancy progresses this spot will become larger and if the fish is light colored enough you can some times see fry inside her. If she is a male it will only be a matter of time before she is pregnant, good luck! :)
 
She doesn't look pregnant to me either. A front pic could help.
 
Thanks everyone. Here's a front picture.
