I wonder if the word “no” is a hard word for overweight people? I don’t like saying “no”, it’s hard to say “no”, I feel bad saying “no”. I guess the answer to my question is quite obvious – overweight people certainly don’t say “no” to themselves in one common way. Ha.
I said “no” today. I was supposed to go to a mom’s get together thingy. All the moms in the playgroup I’m a part of were getting together tonight, sans kids, and bringing a food dish – starter/main/desert – and do a recipe while also participating in good food and cheer.
No.
I can’t. I can’t go. I know, I know – I COULD go in theory. I could go and just drink tons of water and a salad beforehand. I could take teeny tiny peices. I even considered going and NOT taking a dish myself because then I’d feel bad and not eat anyone else’s food. But I decided to put myself first and say No because I don’t want the challenge. I’m not strong enough for it right now. I feel bad like I’m letting others down. People have been wanting to hang out – maybe I’m the group entertainment, I dunno. But court jester or not, I’m taking THIS seriously…
I said no. And it was the right answer, I’m sure.

It’s ok. I’m sure she understands
Sometimes the easiest way to resist temptation is to avoid it all together.
It’s actually like 20 women, lol, but yeah – they get it or they don’t. I actually got an email from another one of the moms, and she wasn’t going for much of the same reason. I told her we could have gone and suffered together lol, at least we wouldn’t be alone. BUt yeah, it was good I didn’t go – I’m feeling good
