I'm sure you have lost weight nuttywoman, you seem to have been sticking to it lately.

Feeling low today. Had a guest last night and made some dinner, just a simple dhal and pilau rice. I went back for seconds and it got commented on, as well as uncomplimentary things said about how I was going to be the biggest mother in the playground. I'm so annoyed that I let it affect me but I got really upset and went to bed. It's just brought up all my insecurities about not being good enough, about being judged for my weight or looks etc. Now feel too insecure to step foot outside my front door. It's made worse by the fact that I'm skint and can't afford nice clothes or to get my hair done for a while. Even if I could afford a top or something it feels like a waste of time since on me it will just look sh$t. So now I feel like an old fat scruffy tramp with carp hair. I've got to go to a birthday party and I'm dreading it cos everyone will be dressed up and looking lovely except me.

And my friend who's having the party was going on about how one of our mutual friends had put on loads of weight while in rehab and was now "really really big". I bumped into said friend the other day and she just looked healthy, if anything still a tad underweight just less gaunt. She looked a size 10-12. Which inevitably made me think I must be seen as a massively obese whale in comparison. I feel like a total freak now and naturally thoughts of starving are surfacing, along with thoughts of massive bingeing.

Sorry, had to rant to people who understand!

Congratulations grateful :T:T:T.
Jojo I know exactly where you're coming from. Other people can be so unkind and todays society is driven by image over what is the most important thing, the person who lives in the body. I wish I could give you a hug and make it all better but all I can do is tell you that we think you're lovely and if people are so shallow to not look past the casing at the person inside, then they're the ones with the problem. I'm currently growing my hair and wouldn't be seen dead in a hairdressers (all part of my ageing Klingon look) could you say you're growing yours and pamper it with a good conditioner? Cloths I know are a problem but assessories can make such a difference. Do you have anything you really like that can be dressed up with trimmings etc? Hope some of this helps, you fabulous, unique, beautiful person - you !!!!!

Not exactly one of my best days eating wise yesterday, and today's not looking like it will help either. Oh well just have to keep plodding on and try damage limitation. Fuming today with mad dogs and DH leaving my car in a mess last night. In no mood to be calm assertive so marched back into the house untill I've calmed down, never mind the loopy dogs doing so :mad:. So much for love and roses - snarl! The day can only get better.....I hope :rotfl:.

HI JoJo,(Stupid comp wont let me change the font!! I don't feel like me and it wont let me do any smilies!!!)Or any paragraphs!!!Just wanted to say I know exactly how you feel as I've been there done that hundreds of times. I'm sure I cant say anything to make you feel better either as I expect it will wash straight over your untidy-in-need-of-a-cut-hair (he he, only joking).Have a bath, pamper yourself and concentrate on a nice thing that you do like about yourself. I'm sure there must be something; your hands, your feet, your face? Something that is nice, and forget about the other things that you are trying to change. They wont be changed by the party, so stop worrying about it and worry about things you can do something about.People do make unkind comments that they think are funny, and they are not. I've been on the end of that several times. I think because I'm a joker people think I'm fair game and that I'll think it's funny. I have turned around with a dead straight face and said "Actually I have suffered for years with eating dissorders and comments like that really damage my mental health" They tend not to do it again.Had a really really carp week. Slid across the ice in my car straight into the path of another and wrote both cars off. It was all very upsetting. The lady in the pther car was 34 weeks pregnant and I felt so responsible, well, it was my fault! I was so worried about her but she is ok, and so is the bump. Thank God. Needless to say the eating sensibly has gone for a Burton. I'm gonna eat what I want til Wednesday and then give it all up for Lent. I know I'm an atheist but I'm sure the Christians wont mind a little ol froggy joining in will they?Right, hopping off, I hate my writing like this ~ I look like a dweeb!!
