  • There is a dating site for chubby chasers, I'm sure too! Maybe when it's in the budget, but for now I'll just keep working on myself FOR myself. Being short and having a stocky frame, I know that even at a healthy weight, I'll never be the tall, willowy, "ideal". I'm fine with that...and I hope someday I cross paths with a…
  • I personally think health reasons are the best reason to want to lose weight and get active. What could be more motivating then wanting to live! Welcome!
  • I keep hearing there are men out there who like Rubenesque women...why can't I find one? lol Sometimes I wonder if a certain percentage of guys who like a full figured woman choose thinner women because they're afraid of what their buddies will say.

  • Good question...I've only been tracking for a few days, but I've been trying to stay within 50 calories one way or the other. It would take some good planning to get my 1200 exactly each day.
  • I have over 50 to lose (haven't decided end goal weight yet, just a sub goal) and while I'm ready for the challenge, I know weight loss comes tough for me. I have fat genes, and jeans. lol That's no excuse though, and I'm sure I'm going to need peer support, too. :)
  • One of my biggest regrets about my high school years were that I worried way, way too much about how I looked, having dates, etc. I guess we all do. So while I can totally understand (and remember) your feelings, try to take to heart what us "been there, done thats" are saying about how much less significant that will be…
