Aimee, I really like your new picture - it almosts looks like a different person..
I only ask, to get a feel for the difference in sizes between you and your friend. Becuz I had a friend, who was only a tad smaller than me, but talked like she was way way smaller, even almost the perfect size (which she was still a size 16 and I was a 18)..........So don't get too offended by your friend-it happens.

j/k Maybe the next time she says I feel fat give her a dose of her own medicine and tell her you're not sure how to respond to that.
Honestly, I like the response you had
with feirce motivation"........
I think it's like a couple of people have said, I think she meant well.
