Stylist’s columnist Billie Bhatia on how to handle going on holiday with friends when your body has changed throughout the pandemic.
“I’m going on holiday with a group of friends and their partners for the first time in two years. My body has changed a lot during the pandemic; I’ve put on weight, and while I’m desperate for a holiday, I feel like hiding in my room because I’m so anxious. The girls have been detoxing and dieting, and my body is much bigger than it was the last time we went away. I’m scared everyone will judge me or – even worse – I’ll have a shit time because I’ll be worried that everyone is looking at me. Is there a way to get over it, or do I start making a list of excuses?”
