  • It's easy. You should be losing weight for yourself, not someone else.
  • I'm a strong independent black woman and I don't need no man.

    and when u have an ex always emailing u telling u that ur ugly and fat it makes it hard to wanna do stuff cuz no one will notice.

    just need to find away to get movitvated

    First things first! Block him... and anyone else poo pooing your journey. If you don't get your mind right first thing in the morning the rest of the day will fail. If you're allowing an ex to email you or text you with that crap, then you're not ready for REAL change yet. When you are, you (and anyone else) can friend me. I post a "morning writing" every day to get you started on the right foot. Fix what's broken and change will come! I promise!

    I am single. My ex however was very anti-exercise so my situation has actually improved a little. Having said that, a partner that was also working toward the same goal would be infinitely helpful.

    Same... well, cept Princess charming. I want to be at my best so that I have the confidence and health to attract the right lady when I meet her. I'm not there yet, but I'm a patient guy so it's not all bad.

    Loosing weight so that I could hopefully find a significant other. Kind of hard to do when youre way fat and not attractive.

    But thats not my primary reason. I want to lose weight for health reasons. Also when I turned 30 I got super depressed about it. This seemed like a good solution to resolve that depression. Been working out pretty good so far.

    I'm trying to be healthier because I notice a HUGE different in my mood. Yeah, I'm single, but I'm not necessarily on the hunt for another boyfriend. So, the decision to lose weight and be healthy is completely my own, and I think it's building my confidence and THAT is what will attract my next victim.
  • I am losing weight to make all the people who saw me fat, jealous. I can't wait to post my before and after picture on Facebook and imagine everyone's jaw drop that didn't have faith in me.

    I was married 26 years and he was never supportive of me exercising or pretty much anything else I enjoyed. Now I do this BECAUSE I enjoy it!

    @Colorfag great loss so far Congratz!!!

    Being single makes losing weight much easier IMO^ focusing on myself and doing what makes me happy is a great help in my weight loss journey! but i will also say it is nice to have extra support on your side when losing weight but is not needed!

    Long time not single but it was much easier when I was on my own. I just did anything I wanted, ate what I wanted.
  • yup I'm single a while now :(

    I know for myself its a lot easier to take care of myself when I am single. I need to be selfish when I am losing weight. I have learned from the past I need to have the good habits well in place before getting into a relationship. Its hard to make yourself a priority when ya worrying about someone else.:smile:

    I've been single my entire life, except for 1 month.

    So I never even thought about "needing" back-up from anyone. I've been doing fine on my own :)

    From what I hear, boyfriends tend to sabotage weight loss and make you pack on "comfort pounds."

    I prefer being single. I have been able to devote as much time as I needed this past year because I don't have a boyfriend to absorb my time. Nothing against relationships, but they do make it more difficult to focus on some of the things you need to do for yourself and your health.

    How have you stayed motivated to lose weight if you don't have a significant other backing you up?

    dude, some SO or BF/GF doest really support you in these journeys and u need to do it your self, even your family wont, it is all by ur self. live with it :)

    I stayed motivated because I am single.
    Being single is motivation enough for me :p

    Love it :p

    I'm not single.. but I am separated from my husband right now. Getting a divorce soon. And I have my eye on someone else... but not til I get the divorce.. for me it's just about being healthier for myself and my kids... and feeling better about the way I look :)

    Because me being healthier and fit isn't about an SO..it's about me.

    ^^^ THIS

    Plus, it's easier to stay fit when you're single. No compromises with the meals, and the schedule is a little more open allowing more time to hit the gym or trails.
