    I met someone the other day and we were on holiday together about 20 years ago, she was saying she'd recently found some photos and thought how good she'd looked (2 stone lighter than now) but how big she thought she was at the time. I think we are all far too hard on ourselves and always judge ourselves against the youngest, slimmest person in the room not the norm.
    We all know that the moment in which we live is the most precious, yet we all forget it. We all lose the ability to put things into perspective, especially nowadays. The trick is remembering to remember

    relationships - big area of hopelessness. men do not find me attractive and I don't honestly think the 3 stone extra helps!

    I know its shallow. I know I am more than my weight but the first impression I make is of a short fat person who frankly repels men.

    but if by some miracle I lost weight and still no one fancied me :eek:

    Looks attract shags. If you want decent men then personality is king.

    Many women use their personality to repel men because they're afraid of offering vulnerability. And use their weight as an excuse.
