I'm still overweight but from an 18 to a 12 is a difference. And there are people who do give me more attention now. Part of me sits there upset and disgusted. being 3 sizes bigger made me not a person? It makes me wonder how much worse it's going to be when I get to goal weight. But I have the attitude of "whatever" I need to do this for me and that is their problem. If I was not good enough then, then I don't want them around me now.
