You are not your weight. You are the same person your friends have always known and cared about. The real issue is not how you can (impossibly) lose weight by monday but how you can claim your confidence. I suggest, dress-up, be friendly, and even if you have to fake it, be confident. Trust that your friends like you for who you are.
