Hi everyone, I am really down today. I was doing so well this past March and I lost ten pounds. Well now I am on Spring Break and I can't help but eat. I look at the scale and it is going back up. I try not to but it is so tempting, probably cause I have nothing better to do but eat. All my friends are pressuring me to go swimming with them and they all talk about their new swim suits and everything and they are on my case about now ever going shopping with them. Who wants to go shopping with an elephant. I am really depressed about it and to top it off I had to go clothes shopping with my mom the other day. It is so hard to shop, I amlmost want to cry whenever i go. I see all these girls who can fit into anything they want to and I can't fit in anything. To top all tops my mom went shopping and she fits into size "0" she doesn't do it on pourpose but it really makes me feel ashamed of myself. I will do anything for help, I need it to or I am afraid I am gonna have to get some serious help. I apperciate anyones advice they have for me. I know I have been going on and on but when i get on here i feel like there are people really listening to me and they know how i feel. Thanks for taking the time!!!

man..i feel your pain. I don't even go out with my friends anymore either...I feel like I can't have fun If I'm fat. I started making myself go and do things this week and I noticed that I lose weight just by getting out... even when i eat a lot..its weird. Even though it sounds stupid..get out there and have fun with your friends anyway and go shopping.. buy a cute outfit that does fit..even if it is big.. and have a good time. When you get back the next day..you might be 2-3 pounds lighter..trust me it happens.. I'll pray for you... I really will.. don't be like me..like I was and stay home...you'll find that In two weeks you could be 5 pounds heavier. girl..i know you can do it.. it will be hard to feel comfterble but take it from me...live your life to the fullest no matter what cuz it could end at anytime..get on out there and make some memories
