Remembering a time when you missed out because you felt FAT.

Well not too long ago I refused to go to a party, BECAUSE I felt fat (obviously I gave another reason lol).
I know it seems terribly irrational to do that, but I just couldn't face going out and seeing all those people,when I would have been focussing all night on whether people thought I looked a bit "plump" or not.
So that was it for me!!! Never again I told myself, would I miss out.
Whenever I feel lazy or sluggish, I just remember how I felt when I turned down that invite. I was so upset. I thought "if only I had not been so lazy and greedy these last few months,I could have gone and enjoyed myself".
I asked myself "is pigging out in front of the telly really that important that you're willing to give up on feeling good about yourself?".
Really if you think about the pro's and con's of both, sitting on the couch all day,and exercising, its really a no brainer.
I always have that picture now in my head,of that night,sitting at home feeling sorry for myself.
NEVER AGAIN...I will burn this fat!!!
