Well i don't feel attractive, so i want to get down to 145 pounds so I will feel better about myself. I am 21, single, and am trying to find Mr. Right. I am determined to lose about 55 pounds.

    First of all congratulations on having the strength to come out. That can be a scary thing.

    Secondly, what are your stats? As in, how tall, what do you weigh now? Just curious.

    The hardest part was telling my parents. Surprisingly they took it well. I am 5 ft 8in and 210 pounds :(

    I'm glad they took it well.

    As for the losing weight stuff, you got it. Just remember to be realistic and don't let it overwhelm you. :)

    Yeah, some parents react badly, but my parents are very open minded thank god! I also have an older sister who is gay and happily married, so I am very close with her. As for the weight loss, it can be very overwhelming, but i have learned to take it one day at a time. Stress is something i have learned to cope with :smile:
