I lost 80 pounds for my crush, Chase. But on Halloween, he gave my mermaid dress to the head cheerleader and told the whole party I was "too fat to be loved." Humiliated in a fish mascot suit, I was ready to run. Then his best friend, the cold basketball captain Logan, took my hand. When the cheerleader tripped me into the pool, I took off the costume. The laughter stopped. Chase’s jaw dropped. But Logan just smiled: "I liked her better at 200 pounds anyway."
