I know people say beauty is in the eye of the beholder, however, let's admit it that men are more visual and of course the more weight that comes off the more eyes notice you, doesn't mean its right but sometimes its the case. So just wanted to know if your noticing that your getting noticed? :love:

    I guess I would say YES
    BUT I think a lot of it has to do with your attitude, and how open/warm you are to meeting new people etc

    Not really my dating life but I am getting hit on a lot more. To bad it is usually guys I have no attraction too what so ever. For the first time ever I was out with one of my friends where she was usually hit on and I got the left over well this time I got hit on and another of our friends got hit on and she didn't even get the spare. I know this sounds catty but well it made me feel good because it would have been that the other friend and her would have gotten hit on and I would have been saving the spot at the bar.

    I've definitely noticed that I'm getting noticed. I find it rather amusing.

    A lot actually! Its a sad fact but its true

    a lot of guys on campus didnt notice me before but now I get quite a bit of looks especially at the gym xD
    even had a guy that i adored at one point try to get with me!! Turned his *kitten* down ;D
    went from being single all the time to now dating a semi professional hockey player :]
    Its not just looks tho! Losing weight opened up my personality and confidence :D

    I haven't got a clue... Im clueless I guess. So no, I am still single and looking for the right lady! That is, if she exists.

    I have noticed that I get more attention now however being a married woman the only one that I really took notice of was when someone asked me out using the line "before you lose anymore weight and I no longer find you physically attractive do you fancy going out for a drink sometime?" needless to say I knocked him back but it made me realise that even at a weight where i didn't like the way I looked someone besides my husband found me attractive.

    I never was one to 'get noticed" I do now but by people I wouldnt even consider part of the human race, and when I do break down and give one of them a chance I end up getting played...I wish this cycle would break:grumble:

    Still single....I seem to attract the wrong types for me at times. I've found a great guy that I like...but if it will go beyond that...I have no clue, lol. *fingers crossed* that it does work out. Only time will tell.

    I say that about men...I mean finding the right one. I used to have fun with the wrong ones but not so much

    I am a happily married woman but just this weekend, when my husband and I went out to run errands, SO MANY MEN were so ready to help me...as if my husband wasn't even there LOL :laugh: My husband was just quiet and at the end, he smiled and said, "Dang..it's like i wasn't even there!"

    Then we came home and had some lovin. :laugh: It was nice to get noticed. It hasn't happened in a long time.
  • Still single...:cry:

    Im not about having fun with the wrong ones. Makes for a bad conscience on my part. I don't like doing that. I guess Im old fashioned. But I have noticed more looks from the opposite sex.

    I bet a lot of you were getting noticed before but you weren`t letting yourself believe it or didn`t recognize it.
    As for myself,I am either not or am obtuse about it as I just described.

    ...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"

    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!!
