Do not feel bad.. My wife is plus sized and I love it! A pretty face with a curvy figure is better than an ugly face on a skinny twig. Take it from a me, a man will not just look at your weight. Your personality and overall demeanor matters so much more. Best of luck to you tracyannk28
Thank you for saying this! I wanted to comment on her post but couldn't think of how to word it without it sounding weird / wrong.0 -

not sure if you want to lose weight, or if that was your REASON for LOSING weight, but regardless, plenty of GOOD guys dont mind a gal with a few extra pounds. And theyre the ones who are more likely to stay and still be happy if you gain weight.

Your statement makes me sad
Don't be sad! I lost 65 pounds and spent $6k on getting my teeth all fixed and still spend the weekends alone wathcing Netflix.
But at least I'm healthier!
Remember: being alone and healthy is WAY better than being with a jerk and stuck and miserable. You have freedom! Enjoy it!0 -

I'm doing other things, of course, but this part of my healing is me saying he doesn't get to control my life or my body anymore.
I'm so sorry that happened to you Good for you for finding ways to heal! Wish there was something else I could say (((((((Hugs))))))))))) 0 -

I hate big undies. Honestly I don't care if they have flowers, hearts, or lace, I'm tired of wearing huuuuuuge panties. I want my husband to do laundry one day and not be able to tell whose drawers he is folding. Do these belong to wifey? Daughters? Sons? I'm just saying0

I want to buy new clothes! Seems all I buy is work out clothes to keep me motivated... haha0

I actually had to finance it, but it's worth it 0 -

I love Amazon Instant Video! I just finished Season 2 of Vikings and have Season 1 of Turn ready to go.
Yeah - it's that bad....I never go out 0 -

My 20 year reunion is in July. I wasn't fat in high school or at my ten year reunion and I refuse to be at my 20. Plus one of the evil cheerleaders (who I didn't have any comments made by) who obsessively picked on everyone who was even 5 pounds over what she thought they should be is now way overweight and obsessively posts on Facebook how "old age" has caught up with her and how everyone else will be fat at the reunion because it's just how life works....0

My motivation is to annoy people (there are a certain few) who pay a lot of money for slimming world and boot camp type exercises/personal trainers by losing more weight then them in the same time scale by doing it secretly and for a lot less money.0

I work on a freight crew with 14 guys and I hate weighing more than most of them. Plus someone at work got gastric done and has lost about 100lbs in like 7 months. I want to be just happy for her but I am just scared to be the biggest female on nights...0

Start a "How do I get a date? thread! I'm sure lots of us could give you ideas.0 -
My only slightly weird motivation is dance.
I love being able to go to a salsa congress and keep up with professionals who are much younger than I am. Five years ago, being able to dance at all seemed like an impossible dream, but now I am really able to enjoy it again! It's great!0 -
I want to run for elected office one day, and strangely I got this on my to-do list. I don't want voters to see me as the overweight candidate, I just want them to see me. I also think that if I can accomplish this huge goal of weight loss, I can accomplish my other huge goal of winning an election. Yep, totally unrelated, but it keeps me motivated.0

I have a heart defect, and have to do a treadmill stress test every few years. The last time I did one, I did horribly, and that's when the doctor started mentioning my weight to me at appointments. I didn't listen until last year, when he told me that this coming August I'd be having another one. The plan is to do so well that he never mentions my weight again. 0

I really want to learn how to sew but I don't want to put in the effort of making clothes that won't fit in a couple months!0

so I can wear heels for more than .02 seconds without my feet killing. And so I can buy vintage dresses, they are so hard to find in larger sizes0
Sounds crazy, but as a huge fan of The Walking Dead, it has crossed my mind many times. This discussion has been closed.
