See, you looked different . . . so did I, in a way. Once we'd moved I was no longer popular, and looking back on it I see that nobody that moved to town after I did was really very accepted (except among the druggie crowds). And I was fat, therefore looked different.
I guess I don't quite understand feeling alienated vs. being alienated from without. Just having them look at you and know? Most groups (say adults) didn't recognize anything different about me except being fat, but the important ones (school) did.
