When people have a supportive circle of friends, it is very probable that some are thin, some are fat, and some are in between. Most of us on this site are Wrinklies that have already decided our eating philosophy. I don't think you have to be concerned that we will be unduly influenced by what friends eat.

Happy New Years VPL. Get out there and attend the Singles Party!! I truly hope you have more fun and less worry in 2014.
