Congrats to you too!! Isn't it funny how a diet could change our lives for the better? Even if it's a look here, a smile there!

Congratulations!! I'm sure that just made your day, week, year! Sooo awesome!

I have also found that since I have lost weight, I get more attention from men. I am not used to it, and it still makes me feel a bit uncomfortable. I am used to people looking because I was the fat lady, not because they think I am attractive.
I am in a brand new relationship (3 wks tomorrow) and when my boyfriend tells me he thinks I'm beautiful and sexy, I say thank you, but inside my head I'm wondering... how can you think that??? It's still as much a mental battle as a physical battle for me.

Anyway, I wish you the best of luck on your weight loss journey!!

I guess I must be one of the strange ones. Even at my heaviest, I still got hit on by what I consider to be fairly attractive men. I haven't seen the quality or quantity go up.

Kris...me too until recently. I was still getting looks and I was 300 lbs but when I got closer to 400 lb, I got looks of pure disgust. It's nice now to occasionally get a look that isn't of disgust...

You go Girl!!!!!
Doesn't it make you feel great!?!?!
I completely understand what you mean about the "looking" like you weigh less than you actually do! People think I weigh like 250ish....I WISH!!!
When you don't get attention you forget and then when you do sometimes you don't even realize it.
Keep it up Girl!!!!!!!
