    Do you ever re-read your books?

    What Is Your Main Limitation Of Being 'Fat'

    Main thing I suppose is feeling crap about myself. Feeling that weight knocks confidence? Lack of interest from members of the opposite sex (linked to confidence above!) Feeling hot and knackered all the time, feet killing me! lol
