I know losing weight can cause strain on old friendships, whether it be due to lack of empathy or just plain jealousy but this is a first. All my DS friends have disappeared from my profile!
I've put out some friend requests but can't remember everyone (can hardly remember my own name). SOOOO if I've missed you out, or you just want to be this idiots new friend feel free to friend me.

DUH

I actually did lose a few friends because of GBS here on DS. There are some who are just fundamentally against it for reasons that are their own.

I'm learning what it's like to lose friends already.
