Hello to everyone in this wondrous community. I am in the south of France right now for a friend's birthday and we are due to go out later tonight for some drinks, however, I feel so fat and ugly that I think I will ruin everyone's night by going. 

We spent the day at the beach today and it brought up every single one of my insecurities. They're all professional volleyball and football players so they all have perfect bodies...and then there's me who used to be a pretty decent cyclist until I broke my ankle 2 years ago, and as a result of that and being too spooked to get back on the bike, my weight has ballooned from 64kg up to 92kg in the space of just two years. Oh and I also have horrible scarring on my back from acne when I was a teenager.

So my question is this: should I just get over myself and go out? Or should I hang back at the hotel and let the others go out and enjoy their night without me projecting my insecurities on to everyone and perhaps ruining the pictures of the night with my bloated face and moobs?

Would appreciate any input :) Thanks everyone.
