e&w hasn't quite let us get to know them yet.
Default I know that everyone isn't a perfect size 6, but...

I am overweight and am wondering how well that will be received when others see me for the first time. I know life isn't about what you look like, but who you are inside. But you all know, as well as I do, that looks do matter to lots of people.

I am trying to lose the weight and once upon a time (before kids) I was a lot thinner than now. This may be more of a problem on my part because I am very self conscious about my weight. Don't get me wrong, I know that not everyone will be interested in me whether I'm thin or not - hell, I'm not interested in everyone either.

Does anyone have any thoughts on this? Are others on this board who have or are dealing with this issue?
