Losing weight to get back at an ex.
We all have many reasons why we want to lose weight. One reason I hear often is to get back at an ex and show her/him what their missing. Or, to show off to a person who turned you down.

Hey everyone, remember to be proud of yourself for the small victories too. The next time you have 3 cookies instead of 4. The next time you get the medium instead of the large.

I will date anyone. Is there something wrong with that?
I was thinking about a party I attended about a week ago. As some of my fellow single friends may know, people seem to want to “hook you up” with one of their friends because they feel like I can’t do it on my own. That night was no different. One of my friends asked me, “What type of girl do you like?” My response was, “I…

The thing to do ladies.
Ladies, the hardest thing to do is approach you. So, about a month ago I was in a store doing some shopping. I noticed an attractive girl.

I don't feel my Weight.
I have been a big guy, my whole life. However, I never felt I was as big as the scale told me. I have several thoughts on why that is: 1. I never really had “big guy” drama.
