Hi ~ This sounds like it's all fear-based. You're afraid that you won't add up, and yet you're afraid that THEY don't add up. 
You're being pretty hard on yourself, don't you think? You have NO PROOF that people wouldn't like you ~ and you have no proof that they would think that you're fat & ugly, which I'm SURE you are NOT.  So without this proof, why not just jump in with all 4 feet, and ask some people over for coffee?  I think you'll be pleasantly surprised. I would bet that you'll have a very good time, and probably set up more luncheon dates. You may have to overlook a few things that bug you about people, but we ALL have things that irritate people. LOL I'm pretty fidgety ~ I find it hard to sit still. I imagine I drive people NUTS.
As for your classmates seeing you now ~ have you seen THEM now?? Brother, I've seen mine, and the majority of mine look like BARNS!!! I'm much smaller than they are -- even tho I could certainly stand to lose 30 lbs. and i'm only 5'2" so I'm a round little gnome!! LOL
Don't sweat the small stuff. Life is too short. Ask some people over and enjoy yourself. I know you'll be glad you did. Hugs, Lee
