Relationships

Feeling unsure and nervous

I've met a guy online, he seems really lovely, makes me laugh and we seem to click.
He's very keen on us meeting for a coffee soon, but I'm feeling really nervous about it.
My nerves seem to come from the fact I've not had a long term relationship, my last boyfriend was when I was 15, I'm almost 30 now...the reason for this long gap is that I've not met anyone I was interested in who was interested in me, then I was incredibly busy with work so just didn't have the time to think about dating.

I'm also not skinny and never feel attractive...I'm a size 20 and I just think he'll see me and be turned off by me...he has seen a few photos of me, but there only from the neck up, so my weight doesn't show.
I want to sort of say to him that I'm not slim and I hope he's not put off, but then I'm not sure what to do.

Any ideas?
