Im going out with my 3 best friends tomorrow night but every time we go out I dread it! I feel the fat one all night (they are all skinnie minnies) and I feel that I stand out like a sore thumb. I try my best to look nice and fit in but always feel like a blob next to them and spend the whole night fidgeting and feeling uncomfortable - aasrrgghh! Wish I had told them I busy now! Im dragging my wardrobe out looking for something halfway decent to wear x

    Go and have a blast. Put yourself in an invisible bubble and zip it up! Remember, what people have to say about you is none of your business! :wink:

    Life is short!!! Don't get me wrong... I'm with you on that blah feeling, but I too have learned that whilst everyone is out having fun, I was the one sitting at home.

    Nope, you go and have fun!!! You're on a path to change your life. Whoever meets you tomorrow night, will be doubley impressed to see you when they meet you again in the near future!!

    Looking foward to your update on Sunday morning!! :tongue:

    Confidence makes up for a lot. Just go and enjoy yourself. Stop thinking what strangers will think off you. You will never see them again. Have fun and enjoy, and people will enjoy looking at you!

    I dread going out all the time, but you know what at the end of the day I don't give a *kitten*!!! the only person that matters is yourself!! So get up, get dressed and get you don't give a *kitten* attitude on and have a blast!!! Have agreat night out!!!
  • You've been working hard. Maybe its time for a little treat/pick-me-up. Do you have a Torrid where you live? That store is amazing. They have awesome clothes for women who are large but also clothes for women who are only slightly larger than average. :) And thier shoes are killer! When you walk in the room, you'll turn heads. And NOT in a "I'm bigger than my friends" kind of way. Go rock it girl!

    Think thin honey, don't worry about what others think!

    Take what you got and work with it :D

    Stop stressing. While you're obsessing on your weight, another friend is probably stressing over her hair, and another over her shoes. We all tend to be hyper critical of ourselves, and have a thing that really gets us down. Accept yourself for what you are - a real person trying to make herself healthier. Everything takes time and you'll get there. In the meanwhile, stressing and obsessing is doing nothing but making your life miserable. Why do you have to be as thin as them to have fun? Who cares what other people think?
