Does losing weight helps your dating game?

I have lost almost 70 pounds-
I can honestly say that no, losing weight had no effect on my dating life 🤦
Keep in mind, that is MY experience. I might just be the exception, or maybe I just have really bad luck with men; I don't know. I however, have had the same luck now as I did when I was overweight. Yet I've seen men and women lose weight and suddenly people are flocking to their dating profiles-

You don't want those kind of people in your life.
Because most of them will only love you for your looks, not your personality. What I mean is this: suppose you gain your weight back- will that person still like you, or did they only like you for your appearance?
That's why I always show people my before and after pictures, at least the people that didn't know me when I was fat. So they know how hard I worked to get to where I am now. If anything, people respect me more before of how hard I worked and the effort I put in to maintain my work.

To answer your question, I think it comes down to not just losing weight, but your confidence as well. Losing weight typically boosts your confidence and self esteem- which ideally, is what other people are drawn to. So by losing weight, you give off an aura of confidence that will make it easier for you to approach, or be approached, by those you're interested in.

Again, results will vary. My self esteem is crap so... haha. Take what I say with a grain of salt.

I don't think it matters. I've seen people 100 times heavier than me who have more success than I do.

I lost weight in high school but I was still the same kid. It wasn't until I went away to college that things changed

It could help, yes. Can have an affect on you psychologically
