    Honestly, when I was about the size I am now but less muscular I saw a lot more action than I do now. Girls up here don't like guys with muscles! Well, that and it's been two years and I think the general tone toward dating has gotten a bit colder here.

    Blehhhh. Most girls I meet just got out of a long term relationship, too, haha.

    Get noticed a lot more and that's with coats and sweaters on! I don't usually approach girls though so I doubt I'd change my status. And also I don't have time for a relationship anyways...

    uh yeah... I'm happily married but I definitely am getting lots more male attention. I consider it a compliment. Men I've worked out next to at the gym for years are suddenly staring and/or talking to me... etc. I just smile to myself and go on about my day feeling fantastic!

    I am noticing that people that liked me when I was thinner are popping up again. Not happening! :)

    I am now seeing guys that liked me enough to try to sleep with me when I was bigger that now want to date me cause I am skinner.

    I do believe that I have more confidence now so it attracts guys, even though they are ones I am not into.

    Oh yes....losing 135 pounds makes things VERY different!! :laugh: :laugh:

    It took me awhile to get used to it. BUT...I lost the weight and then divorced my husband so it all comes in handy!! :tongue:

    Yes I have definitely noticed a difference. It is flattering because I have not gotten that very often in my life and I am proud that I have taken pride and lost the weight I have that it is noticed :-) All you sexy people know what I am talking about, you all rock!!

    ...men seem to approach me and stare a lot more. I'm not single so it really doesn't matter. what I did notice is women giving me dirty looks a lot more. *dislike* don't be mad at me because of how you feel about you, ya know. I want a wear a shirt that says "I used to be fat so step off b@#ch"

    ROFL!!!!!! That cracks me up!!! I think the shirt would be AWESOME!!!!! It is insecurity, though... with other women... We act a fool when some competition steps in the room :laugh: ( I say, "we"... I couldn't care less these days :drinker: )

    I'm completely oblivious to this stuff unless it is VERY obvious. I generally assume that people just want to be friends with me because I am so effing cool.

    That is freakin' HILARIOUS!

    I totally get that bad vibe from other women all the time -- especially when they're sitting on their butts at the park watching their kids play and I'm out there playing tag with mine or doing tricep dips and pull-ups on the playground equipment!

    i have seen a change. funny enough, i get less attention than when i was heavier. don't think i've been approached by a man in about 4 months, when i was about 20 pounds heavier. AND when i would go out with friends before, i was always the one getting approached/attention.. now? nothing at all. =/

    Yep since the divorce I've had as many dates as my ex did during the marriage. But it's too early to tell with the weight loss.
