    No, more like for getting some booty. Also if somebody loves someone cause he's now not so big that's probably not love.

    Good point, so true, but I think booty is far more important than love.

    Aside from building my own self-esteem and confidence (and ultimately looking after my health), yes I am looking to lose weight to find love.

    I get overlooked when I am a bigger size. I don't attract interest when I'm large. It's facts, it's the truth. I'm realistic that I need to be looking after my health and size to be considered for love.

    Not sure what my take on this is, as far as being a guy that's into fitness I think it's actually become harder to find someone.. In some ways!!

    I mean, the benefits of a healthy lifestyle and feeling good about my figure FAR outweigh any negatives.. It seems that a lot of people that are out there (especially in the UK - other countries, I have no idea!) seem to think very deeply about getting with somebody that's deeply into fitness. In-fact I've been knocked back so many times and told it's because they enjoy food too much and they think I'll be a killjoy (not in those words!!).

    For someone that just wants to loose weight and doesn't spend subordinate amounts of time in the gym however, that probably woudln't be so much of an issue.. I can only speak from my person situation! Everybody's different.. I've given up looking, with the thought train that, if someone comes along then fair play if not.. I'm pretty happy with my lifestyle as it is!

    Anyway, the bottom line is.. There is no denying that loosing weight (or ganing it, depending on the goals of whoever's doing it) is a massive confidence booster. Whoever you meet needs to like you for 'you'.

    Have an awesome day :D

    Lmfao "I got laid when I was fat" omg Hahahah
    Everyone can get laid and find love being over weight that much is true. I myself used to be a chubby chaser because I thought they had more heart but they are just as mean as a skinny or fit ect dude. Don't really matter.
    As for myself I trying to loose weight to not be the fat one at my up coming family reunion

    I'm trying to lose weight cause I would like to see my penis again. I'm tired of relying on mirrors just to look at it.

    I did it for my own health and for hopes of finding love. The health aspect has worked out great, as for the love part - I'm still invisible.

    About 25 more pounds to loose and I'll still be working on taking the fat off at the gym as I know I'm going to be in the "skinny fat" zone.

    It's funny, I originally lost about 50 pounds about 3 years ago (and have since gained it all back). Even at a size 4 I thought I was fat and couldn't understand why guys were talking to me all of the sudden. Since gaining weight and learning to love myself at any size, I've found that my relationships are better because I'm not always worried about gaining weight.

    Love is elusive whether you be plus size or zero size. True love shouldn't have a size but visual attraction is usually a requirement in the real world. I personally have the attitude if you can't love me at my worst why the hell would I want you at my best. That is a problem for me if I ever lose weight where I fit that perfect small attractive size... I wil think meh this dude wouldn't have looked twice had he saw me at 200 pounds.

    Most of the time, yes... because the few men that I have been on dates with/interested in/etc... have not worked out and I have always thought it is because I am not "in shape/fit/skinny". I think my personality overpowers everything... but I have to remember that attraction has to be there. Nothing wrong with me, just not someone's cup of tea. But, I do think i'd get more attention if I was more in shape. Plus i'll be more confident in myself.. which in turn will attract the right person.

    I'm already in a committed relationship and my current S.O. tells me that one of the first things that attracted her to me was that I was very fit for a man pushing 50 and it demonstrated discipline and sacrifice. To be honest, that makes me want to kill it that much more. Also , I do it for health reasons as well.
