Token Fat Chick

I used to look around at a social setting being the people watcher that I am and I could pick out people, you know what I mean...the snob, the yuppie, the spoiled brat, the (excuse the language) slut, the ladies man etc....and the token fat chick. I have recently come to admit to my own horror that more often then not when in a group setting I......am the token fat chick. It's so depressing and yet I am still struggling to find my resolve, motivation and drive to get my *kitten* in motion (literally) Bad eating habits aside, yes I do like chips and convenience foods, but I also truly enjoy a healthier diet so changing my eating habits is hard but definately easier then getting back in motion. I used to love to take my dog for a long early morning walk, it's how I have lost weight in the past and so I know it works, but then I got plantar facitis and walking caused me a lot of pain, plus I gained more weight so walking for an hour became a chore instead of something I enjoyed. Plantar facitis seems to be corrected now, so I joined MFP and was raring to go.......then I developed a heel spur in the other foot. Seriously! I have never been a "when life gets you down fight back" kind of person, it was less painful to just ride out the storm and hope for my sanity to remain intact so when I feel like everything is against me I kind of give up, sad but true.
Now though..........I am the token fat chick, and I am disgusted with myself. Why does this have to be so hard?

    Maybe if you stop judging everyone around you and focus on yourself, you will be much happier.

    It's only as hard as you make it.
