    So, I always wear something that I normally feel hot in. That way, even though I feel bad right this minute, I fake it til I make it. It always works. When I wear something that I know I'm wearing to hide my body, I feel worse as the day progresses. I walk around thinking "why did I dress my self like a frump...I must be frumpy". But if I dress hot...well then I feel hot.

    A fowy dress or Maxi. I LOVE dresses. You can find one for every kind of day :)

    I changed black tops twice today for that reason. Settled on the one that's not too clingy, not too baggy with a pair of twill capris. BTW: the blue hair is an excellent distraction. :-)

    Normally nothing but my pants..... sat on my bedroom floor crying....... surrounded by clothes. :laugh:

    This!!! Defo me last night as I tried on my entire wardrobe!

    On another note, Dressing like you feel good sounds like a good idea actually! That way if its all in your head at least everyone else gets to see the nice dress haha :)

    I totally get what you're saying. I had this problem earlier this week. I normally always wear a sheath dress or pencil skirt to work, and on Tuesday, I was going to wear a white pencil skirt, but I looked fat in it. Yesterday, I looked awesome in it. Some guy who walked into the building behind me asked me if I work out. You know I do, honey.

    If I'm feeling fatter than normal, I will just wear a fuller skirt and a belt that defines my waist.

    So agree with this! A full dress or skirt and top with a waist-belt does wonders. That way you don't have to worry about sucking anything in but can still show off a little!

    You look so pretty and fit in your profile picture, but I know what you mean--sometimes it's hard to feel good in your own skin.
  • I've been at this a while now, and although there's been little weight/fat percentage change I have noticed everything's a little more 'smooth'...HOWEVER I am going out this weekend and want to look good, yet having tried on everything I own I feel crap in it all :( what's the point in all the effort if in the end you feel worse than you used to?!even my old faithful dresses look frumpy and gross!waaaa I just need a moan!!!!!!

    fat day? you're having a laugh aint ya! you look great
