Well, Spain sounds nice...but what happened with your "friend?" What did she do?

You'll probably have a much better time without her!

I can understand your apprehension. Whats up with this friend (1)???? I would ask her why she has turned against you this way. And I would talk to your Mom too. Let her know about your concerns.

As for your confidence level, you have 7 months to get into shape. And who says you have to wear a bikini? There are some really sexy one-pieces that flatter the positive parts of your body and hide the imperfect parts!

It could be a trip of a lifetime. I wouldn't discount it right away! Take a look at some of the options you have and try to put things in a positive prospective! But as I said talk to the two main characters of this situation...friend #1 and your Mom! Maybe your Mom can help you sort it all out!

I wish you luck on your decision and would love to know how it all turns out!
