    I want to find someone who'd date me - and I think I can pull that off if I wasn't so overweight lololol

    Do not feel bad.. My wife is plus sized and I love it! A pretty face with a curvy figure is better than an ugly face on a skinny twig. Take it from a me, a man will not just look at your weight. Your personality and overall demeanor matters so much more. Best of luck to you tracyannk28 :smile:

    Thank you for saying this! I wanted to comment on her post but couldn't think of how to word it without it sounding weird / wrong.

    not sure if you want to lose weight, or if that was your REASON for LOSING weight, but regardless, plenty of GOOD guys dont mind a gal with a few extra pounds. And theyre the ones who are more likely to stay and still be happy if you gain weight.

    just sayin ' ... ;)

    Your statement makes me sad :(

    Don't be sad! I lost 65 pounds and spent $6k on getting my teeth all fixed and still spend the weekends alone wathcing Netflix.

    But at least I'm healthier!

    Remember: being alone and healthy is WAY better than being with a jerk and stuck and miserable. You have freedom! Enjoy it!

    3 1/2 years ago, I was very fit. Then I was raped. I was drugged pretty badly and so was unable to fight back and was left very sick for a few days. I packed on a lot of weight. Now, I'm fighting back by taking care of myself, by lifting weights, walking, nourishing myself. I'm doing other things, of course, but this part of my healing is me saying he doesn't get to control my life or my body anymore.

    I'm so sorry that happened to you :( Good for you for finding ways to heal! Wish there was something else I could say (((((((Hugs)))))))))))

    I hate big undies. Honestly I don't care if they have flowers, hearts, or lace, I'm tired of wearing huuuuuuge panties. I want my husband to do laundry one day and not be able to tell whose drawers he is folding. Do these belong to wifey? Daughters? Sons? I'm just saying

    lol okay then!

    envious of the money to get your teeth fixed - i have major dental issues and cant afford to have it done :(

    I actually had to finance it, but it's worth it :)

    My 20 year reunion is in July. I wasn't fat in high school or at my ten year reunion and I refuse to be at my 20. Plus one of the evil cheerleaders (who I didn't have any comments made by) who obsessively picked on everyone who was even 5 pounds over what she thought they should be is now way overweight and obsessively posts on Facebook how "old age" has caught up with her and how everyone else will be fat at the reunion because it's just how life works....

    My motivation is to annoy people (there are a certain few) who pay a lot of money for slimming world and boot camp type exercises/personal trainers by losing more weight then them in the same time scale by doing it secretly and for a lot less money.
