However, high school could be the start of a "new" you. That is, become more confident and sure of yourself. Don't think that that guy didn't want to go out with you because you were overweight, he didn't deserve you because you are a better person than he is. Stand up tall, and make your presence known, in a good way of course. Be friendly and upbeat and care about people. Most of all, care about yourself. Take care of your body. Instead of thinking "oh I have to lose so much weight" think "I should take better care of my body." Try to eat healthier foods, try new activities and just have fun. ~chaz |
