They've split up and he's remarried someone who is older and not so attractive. He's stacked on the weight, as well as getting very grey.

It's the first time I've seen most of my old "family" in about 5 years. I want gasps and exclamations of how good I look. And how stupid he was.

So there. I've said it. Does that make me a bad person? It's not my main motivator, but the thought of the wedding has been keeping me on track for the last couple of weeks. Whatever it takes, right?

I dunno if it makes you a bad person, but if it does, I'm right there with you and we can share healthy snacks whilst everyone else is knocked over by how effin' fabulous we both look and how we ooze beauty and self-confidence.

I'd like to be able to do something similar, you see Heck, I got on this thread and said I wanted attention from men! Talk about daring

I love this thread. I already posted but I want to add more.

I have a friend who I go on nights out with a lot. She's really pretty, and gets loads of attention from men while I just stand there and get bored. I would love to get some of the attention that she gets. I used to get loads of attention from men when I was even just 20lbs thinner, and I would love to get that back.

Also, I'm sick of the ways in which people are rude to me just because of the way I look. People will deliberately avoid me, stand instead of sit next to me on the train, not use the same public toilet as I've been in, sit in silence instead of talk to me, doors slammed in my face instead of held for me, etc. I would love for people to not be frightened of me, and even want to talk to me. And I would love to get favours and nice things done just by batting an eyelash and flicking my hair!

There are also so many different types of clothes I want to wear, especially knee-high boots. I also want to be comfortable wearing my corsets (although I love them, they make me feel so good!), wearing a short skirt, and I would love to wear dresses as my everyday wear. Oooh, and lingerie. I'm going to buy so much sexy lingerie when I get to goal.

Additionally, I do go swimming occasionally, by myself, but I'd love to go with my friends and family, especially my little brother. We do loads of stuff together, but I'd love us to go to the big leisure pool near our house and go on the flumes and slides and stuff. That would make me so happy, but I'm just too self-conscious at the moment.
