    I get the whole thing about creating a caloric deficit

    But if you are single what are you supposed to do other than eat, go to work, and sleep?

    People in relationships can:

    have coffee with their husband
    talk to their husband about their day
    hold their husband's hand
    have sex with their husband
    go on a hike with their husband

    Whereas single people have a lot of time on their hands which is why they eat and get fat

    You can have coffee with friends!
    Talk to your friends/family/internet friends about your day
    read a book or watch tv
    have sex with yourself (lol)
    go on a hike with friends/family or go to the gym alone!

    Effing really?

    The possibilities are endless when you're single...all of your time is actually your time to do what you will...you get married and have a family and suddenly time becomes a real issue because priorities have to focus on more than just you...you're single, you're all you have to worry about or be concerned with...

    When I was single I:

    Had coffee with friends...or not...sometimes I just enjoy a cup of coffee on the patio and taking in a beautiful morning.

    I went hiking...a lot...sometimes with friends, sometimes on my own...a hike in the woods on your own is a beautiful thing...I still do it.

    I road my bike a lot

    I hit the gym

    I played frisbee golf and ultimate frisbee with my buddies

    I played video games for hours on end

    I spent a lot of time reading without being interrupted

    I could go on and on and on....

    Please, give me a break! It's so much easier to do what you want to do when you want to do it when you don't have other considerations like a wife and family...it's great and all, but your time ceases to be your time...it's everyone's time.

    I agree with this post. It is much easier to diet/eat healthy/ and workout when you are single. Unless the spouse/boyfriend/girlfriend was also dieting which I doubt happens that often.

    Exactly. I made it clear when I started dating my now ex bf that fitness was important to me. He liked being big and eventually thought I wanted him to change. Now that that nonsense is done, I can lift and not have anyone whine about it.

    I have been single/widdowed for the past 17 years. My life is very busy.

    I have a great job. When I am not at work I:
    Ride my horse
    Hang out at the barn talking to fellow horse owners all day
    Practice Aikido at the dojo (3 nights a week)
    Go on trips to aikido seminars a few weekends a year
    Visit the zoo, botanical garden, and museums around my area. I have a membership to the botanical garden and visit often.
    Go to a movie or have a movie night at home with a friend.
    Go for a walk in the park.
    Read
    Enjoy the peace and quiet of my home.
    Paint, draw
    Care for my orchids and container garden
    Go for a long drive in my Subaru and discover new places.

    I really enjoy being single and have no interest in changing that.

    OP, you don't ask people out after 5 minutes. Maybe in exceptional circumstances, but I have always hated being hit on by strangers in the street. Why would you go on a date with someone you know nothing about? They could be a serial killer. Or a Trump supporter.
    Anyway, I agree you should try online dating. Talk to many men and work out who you like/don't like and then wait and see if they want to meet you. You seem to think that approaching anyone with a penis will get you a relationship. It won't. Be more selective and less self-pitying
