Tonight, soon, I am heading off to a 40th birthday party for a friend from high school. There will be a few other high school friends, but it will be mostly people I don't know.
This is my nightmare combination.
Strangers, a party and my obesity.
Of course it is my obesity and the insecurity associated with it that makes this my nightmare.
I used to love parties and meeting strangers.
I am meant to be there in 30 minutes. My hair is still wet, my face makeup free and I have no idea what to wear!
I let my DH off the hook as a couple of the other school friends will not have their husbands there and my DH hates meeting strangers even more than I do.
Motivation plus.
How much better would I be feeling right now if I was at or even closer to goal.
Immeasurably.
Self inflicted and now I must go dress and face my demons...
A party should NOT feel like such an ordeal!

Hi
Hope the 40th was not the ordeal you imagined it would be.
When we are self - conscious - we imagine people are talking about us when in reality it is not us at all
