    OK so I'm not THE biggest person in my new 30ish-person program, but I'm the second biggest by a fairly long stretch. I think the one-bigger-than-me person could be a good friend, because she's sharp and says what she thinks and our interests align, but I don't like the mental image of being the two funny fat chicks together, oh so naturally, in this crowd of skinny, outdoorsy, stylish types (a lot of designers in the lot.) How petty is that? Another guy also threw out that he's thinking of doing the summer in Paris (as. one. does.) and I realized I might potentially be able to as well (or somewhere else) and my first thought was, ugh, I'm not going to Paris a. if I can't wear cute clothes, and b. I feel guilty about every bit of cheese I eat.

    Also in France they walk a lot. Dragging extra weight all over another country is b#tch.

    Before, when I would lose weight I would only feel value due to my looks...I've changed that perspective a few months ago...but who doesn't like the attention? Time to work on looking better!

    Yes, and in heels.

    Resetting my goals again. Petty reason? I just want to see how much smaller I can get in a healthy way, given my $hitty schedule at the moment.
