I think the key is to try to ignore the negative stuff and focus on the positive both internally and externally. Remember your only as fat on that bike as you think you are. I have a good friend that is in perfect condition: she is a truly beautiful girl but yet she doesnt think so. I asked her if she wanted to come for a ride with me and she said she didn't like to ride her bike much because she felt she was too fat for it. It made me feel kind of bad, but when thinking about it, self perception can be a very strong thing. Even when people make fun of you, often they do so just to make themselves feel better about being lazy and doing nothing. So just get out there and keep biking and try to have fun
