I understand what you mean. I feel the same way. Im not as big as I sound but inside I am. And I doubt people and my friends. My mom goes on and on about loosing weight but she doesn't do anything to help. It is sooo fustrating. I want to get a job and I considered mcdonlads but I knew that would not be a good idea. Im not good at controlling my mind on those tempations. lol ... It is a difficult thing to get over doubting yourself and how people feel. Its as if that if you doubt yourself it will save you the let down of them hurting you. Which in your mind would make you feel even worse and feel more unwanted. For awhile I tried to deny myself of things and try to blame my problem on other things. I have finally gotten to the point that I am taking resposiblity for being overweight. But now I'm like you and am doubting everything a person says to be cause in my mind I am not worth it. We shouldn't be thinking that way. We need to do something possitive to make us feel better so we can overcome our weight issues (or at least for me anyway). I found one thing. Music can make you feel so much better. I love music (its my life). There is a song for everything. Find a song that makes you happy and feel good about who you are. It will make you feel confident in yourself. I hope this helps...and I'm sorry if i write to much.(I always write to much)
