Too overweight to date?

I guess what bothered me is the way these men said it. It would have been more tactful to say you aren't my type so I won't date you but saying you are too fat to date is just plain rude. That is what got me more than anything else. Yes, you are right I am insecure with my body but certainly not my mind. In my mind, those were very low blows to me.

Thank you for the kind words. I hope you too will meet someone that is deserving of you. We should settle for no less.

Aren't you a sweety. I think its a Calgary thing anyways. Have to move to BC as its a health reason with the migraines. Not the air pressure, but the dryness here. Sorry we couldn't hook up.

Oh, I certainly would not date that type; way too shallow. If that is all my choices then I will gladly stay single.

Oh, I feel so loved.

Well I found if you don't change your exercise routine, you will just maintain your weight and not lose. I just took up kickboxing as a new routine for my workout.

Yep, I am thinking that too or they really need to get glasses.

Thanks for your input. I don't plan on ruining my figure but hope to improve it.

I understood where you are coming from as its not weight for you but fitness level. I like to cycle long distances and when a guy can't do 10 km and he is clutching his heart, it doesn't work for me.

Thanks for your input.

Thanks for you kind words. I started working out to lose weight but now rather enjoy it. As well, I have a lot of energy and even mentally feel better. I used to be tired all the time and now can survive on 5 hours sleep and still be energetic. I was just surprised by the guys that labeled me as fat. Thanks again.

Too overweight to date?

Yep, me too girl. Like to hug a man and not hear his bones crack.

I agree, there is no downside to working out as I feel better than I have for years. I just couldn't figure out why these men said I was fat. I know I am not perfect but don't consider myself fat. I guess its all in the eyes of the beholder.

When I first started the weight training, yes I ate a lot but in the last 6 months haven't had much of an appetite which is probably why I am dropping weight again. I drink alot of water and eat lots of veggies/fruits so don't take in too many carbs. I thought men liked women with healthy appetites. I know the guys have dated say I don't eat enough; not quite like a bird but too them not enough as a human being.

Well said.

Personally, never cared for scrawny men.

Think it comes down to being healthy and just feeling good about yourself. That is what is important. If I can't please someone with how I look, he can hit the road.

I agree that I would rather have a man with a few pounds. I like to hug so don't want to break his bones with my hugs. I just didn't like the way these worded the way my body looked. I am not perfect but goodness knows I didn't think it was that bad. Actually I feel better as many have posted on this site that they didn't think I was overweight so I am feeling a whole lot better. I was just so proud to have gotten as far as I did and these guys kind of took the wind out of my sail. But as the old saying goes opinions are like a**hole, everyone has one.

Let's not forget stroke is 5 times higher with a person with a large waistline. Yes, I do measure inches and my waist was almost 7 inches smaller than it was 2 years ago. My doctor says the same thing, go by inches. My weight actually is high for my height but my doctor says I am fine and not too worry about it as I am healthy.

I am having salad for supper but no chocolate cake. Think of me while you are enjoying.

Too overweight to date?

I agree with you that its a matter of taste. Your ex sounded quite shallow. I looked at your profile and honestly can't see what the problem is with you, so it has to be him. I am a tad overweight but nothing major. I am determined to drop a few more pounds and tone my body. I am working towards a goal of cycling 200km. This summer, I am shooting for 100km ride but hope to cycle further. I hope you find someone deserving of you.

We are on the same page literaly. BMI doesn't work when you exercise alot. For instance I exercised 5 out 6 days this week alone. My heart rate is low, blood pressure low, and body fat is low but I still have a high BMI.

Too overweight to date?

Problem is BMI doesn't take account to one's muscle or body frame. The military found it didn't work and eventually dropped it.

Too overweight to date?

I checked your profile and you have quite a small framed body and not much muscle so I could see why you would prefer someone smaller than you. I would think a woman bigger and muscular than you would make you feel uncomfortable. Makes sense.

Well, it looks like you are getting your weight training. I don't go to the gymn myself, just work out at 5:00 am in my basement. Also don't diet, that doesn't work, just eat better. Thats what finally worked for me.

Too overweight to date?

Point taken. Guess I have to consider the source it came from. Thanks.

Too overweight to date?

Yep, set your standards high.

Hopefully he is in shape enough to run.
