    order a slice of pizza then eat a bite or two...... to make it look like you were too busy to eat, make conversation with his friends and when your about to leave just throw away the pizza.... no harm no fowl :P

    First of all, make sure you look amazing. You need to if he hasn't seen you in a month and a half. Also, this is his friends. You don't need to be acting at all. Be yourself, even if yourself is really shy at first. You shouldn't be impressing his friends, anyway, because guys don't want his friends and you being that much into each other. If they're cool with you, then that's good enough. With the food thing, just have a slice of pizza, and eat it slowly. I doubt he'll be trying to shove food down your throat. Tell him you don't have a huge appetite, but don't appear as if you think you're too good. Just have fun.

    Your boyfriend obviously wants you there for the celebration. Take it as a huge compliment. He's not ashamed of you and he is okay with you and his friends hanging out. You've already got a bunch of points going in your favor.

    When it comes to food, just tell the truth. Say, "I'm not really hungry." If he asks why you can say that you've been sick with the flu or that you had a really big lunch. Try and eat as much as you possibly can though.

    It's okay if you're shy and a little nervous. It's a pretty big deal to see your boyfriend again after you haven't seen him for a long time! Dress in clothes that show you off and that you're comfortable in. Remember, he's going out with you because he likes you. You don't need to pretend to be someone you're not. Try and relax as much as possible. If you can't think of what to say, don't worry. Smiling and slipping your hand into his says volumes!

    The author who posted that previous posting was a total loser. "Pat" grow up. This is why you do not have a girl-friend, Pat!

    Go for one reason; Go to have fun with your boyfriend. Be yourself. Just go, and just be. And obviously, you are beautiful. If you weren't, you wouldn't have a boyfriend who invites you out with his friends. He's proud of you, and he wants to show you off. They're gonna love ya!

    And shy is so cute!

    Remember... have fun!

    Just because you're invited to a party doesn't mean you're forced to turn into a pig.

    Plus, different folks eat different diets. You can go there, get a couple of slices of pizza, and just eat the toppings. Tell them you're on a no-carb diet, or that wheat gluten messes up your system. Eat the toppings off a slice or two, and just have fun.

    What usually happens at celebrations is folks will get more caught up in talking and having fun. It's not like a big "sit down and chow down" fest.

    Now, if you're ana/mia, then that's another issue. Starvig yourself by indiscriminantly cutting calories is not the way to go. You should look into eat a certain diet that works for you, be it protein/ketogenic or what-not.

    Stop staring at those sknny super models in Cosmo, and instead pick up a copy of Oxygen fitnes magazine. It's a fitness magazine for women that focues on eating a healthy, REAL food diet, exercising with weights and resistance training to builld lean body mass, and shedding fat so you have more muscle definition. Those girls in that magazine are not beastly bertha's. Girls who use steroids get beastly and manly. A girl that lifts weights naturally will just fill out with sexy muscle.

    The problem with being anorexic and indiscriminantly cutting calories is that usually you will be eating sugary and carby things to meet our limted caloried quota. This means your body is starving for protein, and it starts to eat its own muscles for fuel. That's why even really anorexic girls still seem to have a little pooch of stomach fat and no ab definition..because their body is eating the muscles, leaving them skinny, but still with a 20%+ body fat.

    The other down-side to this is that eating low calorie but making those calories carbs jsut gets your insulin out and preps your body for a huge weight gain if you DO start eating more food later. Starvation mode makes your body want to regain weight. And insulin will make it want to regain fat weight instead of lean muscle mass

    This is why things like the Slim Fast diet fail...they are designed to fail. They are designed to put you into a starvation mode, and that stupid slim fast shake is all sugar and fat...this just preps yor body for a huge fat-gain rebound when you get off the diet. The makers of Slim Fast designed it like that, so you'd have to get right back on the Slim Fast diet ot lose weight again...and they profit.

    Look, never eat carb and fat at the same meal...all fattening foods are carbs + fat ... donuts, cookies, pizza, etc. At the party, if you avoid the bread/crust, and just eat the topping, then you'll be eating primarily protein and fat...which go together naturally in nature.

    Get off your ana diet, and go onto a protein diet...like Atkins or Rosedale. You will gain lean body mass as your body rebuilds itself to a healthy weight. Then go to the gym, STOP running on the tread mill, and START lifting weights.

    Google up a girl names "chickentuna". She used to be a starvation skinny minnie cardio hog until she figured out she could change her diet and lift weights. Now she has the body of a fitness model.

    If you really liked this guy you would tell him. And If he liked you back he would be alrite with it. Don't be shy thats not a good habit and makes people think you dont care and don't want to be their.

    Why haven't you seen your BF in that long...if you have a good relationship, you should be able to talk and tell him your concerns.
