I'm always looking for answers to this as I can't do squats/lunges because of my knee.... my booty has enough size, LOL, I just want it to be higher/rounder/more muscular. :wink: p.s. great job @ILiftHeavyAcrylics :smile:

I have my thoughts (which I'll keep to myself) on why the OP is asking this question (about a third of her posts were similar), but my honest answer is that I feel most men are attracted to CONFIDENCE at any size. They've expressed it, and I've seen it, in my own situation and in others, as well as some men have already…

Good answers. I work with a vegetarian who is as wide as she is tall... but then again, I've seen what she eats... a whole pizza for breakfast will put weight on anyone, veggie or not!

Maybe I am "doing it wrong", but... I understand that the whole point is to make it an enjoyable, sustainable lifestyle and I agree with that, however... for those of us who do "stress out" a little, or concentrate a lot more on our choices... it's possible that we're doing so because we're on half the amount of calories…

Great way to explain! And I'd gladly swap some boob size for your tiny toned body! I could always just buy some more if I missed them too much! :wink:

YAY you!! Thank you for sharing! :smile:

thank you.... :blush:

@wakeworkwin.... awesome transformation! :smile:

I think that's great.... that's part of what makes the world so diverse and wonderful! We all like different things.... it would be SO boring if everyone found the exact same things attractive... :smile:

Sorry! Don't know how to make that pic smaller.... That's the type of facial hair I find attractive on a man....

Thank you dcaiani! I'm 52.... And you're 38?

@lexicpt.... 21

@ladykate.... 29

Lol! Don't tempt me Max.... :wink: At least that would be cardio I could enjoy!!

^^This^^ :wink:

@mayfair 30?

And if the above suggestion of bicycle is too intimidating for you, just walk! Walk slow, walk fast, just walk. You won't believe how it will change your mindset once it becomes a habit. You'll find you don't want to miss one day! (Believe me, this coming from someone who hadn't "exercised" in a long time) Find what works…

Love love love your story.... thank you for sharing! :smile:

I'm so glad to hear people encouraging you, but not necessarily to run. I'm quite often tempted to run myself (or my version of it anyway, lol) and have found that the stress to my joints is not worth the small difference it makes in my calorie burns versus just walking. I know there are a lot of runners out there with…

Big goal reached!

^^^ This! ^^^

(On a lighter note....) I can not wait until the day I hear someone say this to me!!! :wink:

^^This, LOL..... And I always joke and say I'd just as soon step on the scale after eating a whole pizza as to step on the scale at that time... the result would be pretty much the same and the pizza is a whole lot more fun! :wink:

Love love love this! Thank you for sharing! :smile:

@jelie3110‌.... I commend you for the way you are handling all of the "well meaning advice" given here, being as most of it could have been handed out a little more tactfully, had the persons giving their opinions not still been dealing with some obvious pain of their own. None of us are perfect, and some of us are able to…

^^^^This... :(

@Lourdesong.... you must have nice long legs because although I can easily cross my legs, my ankles are no where near each other, definitely the dangling! lol... then again, I'm barely 5'4, so maybe that has something to do with it... ? @JoRocka.... Love that you call them "tree trunk legs".... that's what I've always…

Love it! So awesome! Be very proud... :smile:

Yesterday was my 1yr anniversary on MFP, I've lost over 50lbs, and I finally had the nerve to put some "before & after (during) progress pics" on my profile. It made me happy to see how far I've come, because when I look in the mirror each day, I still see how far I have to go instead.
