Someone took a picture of me at my work christmas party and posted it on a public work forum. I was so embarressed at how fat I looked that I decided I wouldn't look like that next christmas.
Silly really, I mean my colleagues see me everyday, they wouldn't have seen anything different in the picture than they do when they looked at me, but I've been in denial for so long that it really shocked me to see.
That and my unsubtle 5 year old neice telling me that I was the fattest person she knew!
Gotta love kids eh?

awww kids exactly bet she thinks you look gorgeous now
She hasn't seen me yet, they've been in australia for a few months. It's gonna be a bit of a shock, I haven't told them I'm on a diet. My sister is one of those naturally thin people who can eat what she likes. Can't wait to see them, but I hope to lose a bit more first

aww that sounds terrible, i hate it when those people come up to you and hassle you into places and saying that and shoutin thats just pure mean some people are so annoying scumbagOh I forgot, there was a memorable moment last year on my friends hen (also just about got in the airplane)
We were in Portugal - 15 of us with Miss World banners i.e Miss Essex etc. ALL of my friends are slim - skinny - seriously I am the token big girl !!!
Anyway walking down the main strip in town, I was walking slightly ahead with one friend and one of the bar guys start to hassle us. I told him we had another bar in mind and said no - he would not take no for an answer (15 drunk girls in similar sashes = mucho euros!) He then started to insult me at the top of his lungs, "Just bcause you are biggie fatty you tell me no" etc. He carried on screaming till well after I had walked past him. I didnt ever mention it again and neither did any of my friends.:cry::cry:
Mind you, that still didnt stop me eating, my relative just said to me on my 30th. "darling, dont you want to lose weight?" and that was my final straw!
Hated seeing photos of myself that told the truth about how big i'd really got (because in my head i never saw myself as THAT big even though i knew i was iykwim?)
