In the new year my resolution is to actually go on a date & it terrifies me! As a former fat girl used to nothing but disgusted looks & actual laughter from people I asked out in the past, I’m still gun shy & I cry thinking about putting myself out there!

@EmeraldHufflepuff you sound like my wife. Her story is she was a fat girl all her life until gastric bypass surgery and a full body lift. I met her just after the gastric bypass and watched the transformation. That was 20 years ago and she still has the exact same feels you expressed in this post. The more you get out there the more your confidence will grow. Good luck and Merry Christmas

@TwitterExpat thank you! It’s nice to know that there’s hope for me! I’m scarred but still gonna try to put myself out there!

@EmeraldHufflepuff my wife often says that no matter how much weight she loses she still sees herself and the rest of the world through fat girl eyes. To this day she won’t walk through the perfume isle of a department store because all of her life the sales ladies would ignore her.
