hi everyone,
I'm just putting this out there to meet some new ppl and to hopefully get a support system. Does anyone here ever feel like they are surrounded by tiny ppl, or that you're the only fat one around. I'm an Iowan girl trying to get a decent education; I'm a good student, but when it comes to carbs and all those yummy foods - I'd f FAIL miserably! I have a hard time using self-control...When snacks beckon, I'm there :sad:
I really want to fit into my skinny jeans again; I want to go shopping and not feel like all the skinny clerks are starring at me thinking, what's she doing in here?; I want to feel good about myself - I'm single and sometimes unsocial...I feel like my weight holds me back slightly, I don't want ppl to think of me as the fat girl; My sister also lost a ton of weight, and I'm sick of being compared to her...I just want to be happy! :smooched: I want to love myself! This website is GREAT, b/c I really think that there are a lot of ppl going through my rough patch! :drinker:
