What are your thoughts on dating a girl who has had massive weight loss?

[Anonymous]

Does it make you think differently of her in dating? I am talking about someone who lost over 200 pounds on their own, over a span of a couple years. I am down from a 4/5xl to a size m/large, everything's kind of new to me. I am worried in a way with dating what a guy will think I do have a little loose skin nothing too crazy though, but I guess it bothers me what someone might think or how they may feel about it. Thank you!

Inspiring. You went to war with your weight and won. That loose skin is your battle scar. Be proud of it! Any guy that doesn't get that you don't need to be with. Congrats!🙂

I was contacted by a girl who looked familiar on a dating site but couldn’t place her. We talked and she knew who I was and popped the question if I remembered her. Explained she looks familiar but thats it so she sent a pic from Highschool.

She was in my grade but I never talked to her not due to weight but she was probably 300lbs back then. Now she lost all her weight probably via stomach tuck.

So I was like ok soooo … how can I help? Like I’m not interested anyways and she lost her shit. Gave me all caps rageaholic message about how she’d never date me I was a snob in HS etc lol.

Essentially just contacted me to say LOOK AT ME NOW ? Imho bullet dodged.

If anything it should be a massive green flag in dating. We all have are struggles and you were willing to overcome yours and stay committed and really worked hard to lose the weight. You should be extremely proud of yourself for that

[Puppystarfish23]

a lot of people these days sit there blaming everyone else and feeling sorry for themselves when it comes to there weight but you took responsibility for yourself and knew you needed to make a change so well done. Any guy who doesn't want to date you based on that is a massive loser and isn't worth your time

The loose skin can be unsightly, but it depends how much. A little isn't a big deal and more importantly, you put in hard effort and made a major lifestyle change to get fit and healthy. That speaks a lot to your character so I would easily overlook a little loose skin for someone with that strength of character. And I like women who have a little chub anyways.

Plus, if it was really bad, I think cosmetic surgery can get rid of that fairly easily, but I'm not sure.

I'd think you had a lot of willpower and I'd be impressed.

Congrats, you have done something that very few can do and should hold your head up high. If you dont mind me asking what did you find to be the biggest impacted on losing weight?

[Asker]

thank you, overall health but it was also medical problems caused the major weight gain

[BrookeS]

What did you do to lose it? My friend has been trying to lose weight put hasn't been able to.

The massive weight loss is an incredible accomplishment. It also shows that she understands hard work and has the drive to accomplish what she wants to accomplish

[Quackthulu2]

Did that once. Was pretty awkward because her whole body was saggy.

[Jamie05rhs]

That's absolutely amazing!! Great job!!

And yes, I would absolutely date someone like you. You look GREAT! 😃

[Ben487]

I mean you look way better now. I don't think dating will be too hard.

[LiamJHayden]

Good job. That is impressive and shows a lot of commitment.

[Nikki1989]

I would find her inspiring.

Where does all the extra loose skin go?

[Asker]

depends on the severity of it, and if you lost weight fast or not. its just there for the most part. i was pretty lucky i lost weight slow i have very little on my belly thats it

[dudeinohio]

Wouldn't bother me.
