Awh this is a nightmare I am size 12 pear shaped horrible cellulite only 5 foot 2 I've had 2 children and a miscarriage a few weeks ago I'm 40 and I feel so ugly and so self conscious and it's consuming my every thought! I've arrived in holiday at Family's house and I just feel fat and can't enjoy anything with the family they are all having fun in the pool and I can't bear to get in to a swimming costume I feel like a sack of potatoes I cant breathe with feeling how ugly I am compared to everyone else's beautiful body.

Please just get in the pool! Wear a tee shirt over your costume and say it's for sun protection against burning. No one will look at you.

I’m sorry that you have suffered a miscarriage.

Your low feelings are making you focus on things you don’t like about yourself.

A bit of fake tan mixed in with your body moisturiser will enhance your legs and besides once you’re in the pool no one sees your legs!

I hope you understand that your low mood may be caused by hormones and that your emotions are exaggerated.

You’re not ugly and you deserve to be enjoying this break with your family who care not one jot about your figure but do care about you.
