OMG, Two guys just hit on me!!!
God there's hope for me yet-LOL! I haven't had anyone hit on me in a long time and I haven't lost but 2 dress sizes...I had to come and tell it to ya'll, I couldn't tell it to my 7 yr old dd...gosh, my life is changing already, what's gonna happen when I really drop those pounds???
|
woohooooo u go girl!!!!!!!!!
|
Sounds to me like you better invest in some baseball bats :lol: you'll be beating the men off of you soon.
|
I wish-LOL!
|
Oh, how wonderful! Makes you feel good, though, eh? Yep, Yep, our defenses will have to grow a bit, but what a reason to grow for! :lol:
|
I've been heavy since I was 14...I didn't have problems with finding guys who were attractive to me until 4 yrs ago...but because of my body shape most people had no ideal I was over 300 lbs then. They thought I was 200-something lbs. When I was 200-something lbs I looked thin-(I'm the shortest one in my family, everyone else is 6 ft including my baby sister so weight hides on us mostly). So, as I crept up to nearly 400 lbs though, I haven't gotten nothing but looks of disgust from guys. I'm happy being a single mom right now, but it's just funny to actually have someone not look at me disgustedly after dealing with it for so long...
I wouldn't even know how to react anymore...has anyone noticed that they are now attracting the opposite sex because of their weightloss??? |
Congrats on this new-found problem! :lol:
Yep, I am not single but I have had some very obvious "wow"s from men that I know. It really gives an extra oomph to the day to know that you can turn someone's eye! |
I can hardly wait.... :)
|
I have to get down to about 125 to attract any of that kind of attention....and that was when I was in my 20's, so I'm not expecting it this time around!
|
Quest, I'm sure you do get it. I think sometimes we're so used to NOT getting any attention we may not notice the subtle looks anymore.
I am so used to men looking at me disgustedly that I thought negatively about a few other times guys looking at me. They could've been looking at me positively but I was expecting them to be negative. For me it's hard shedding those old social fears and expectations I have... |
lucky you :p
shoot I would not know how to react I have never been flirted with / hit on / asked out or anything remotely like that ever I'd probably freak if some guy started talking to me :lol: |
I can't wait til I can turn heads again too! What a feeling! I'm married, but I want to be attractive! Way to go leasmom!
|
And you know what just losing a few pounds you feel so good and confident that it just EXUDES from you and men definitely sense that.
|
Maybe that's it cause I didn't drop THAT much...I've still got about 180 lbs to go...I assume that I lost about 30 lbs so far...I don't have a scale. But I've dropped 2 dress sizes. I can't look that much differently than I did before...I'm not a model or gorgeous, I'm average...so it has to be the fact that I'm starting to feel good about myself although at the time I was completely caught off guard cause I was thinking...god...these guys are looking at me, they must be thinking...god...look at that FAT woman...but they surprised me. WHO KNOWS why they did it, it just made me feel good.
|
Oh man...I got seriously checked out by this SUPER young looking guy working at Toys r us recently..I almost started laughing out loud becuase he was tripping over himself following me and circling me jsut to stammer "can I help you find anything?" :lol:
CONGRATS! It's a good feeling for sure...but yes sometimes it's a bit scarey too... I get a lot of attention in grocery stores from ppl and I often wish to be left alone then...I am usually not looking my best...lol |
