Would my chances of being approached by a guy improve if I lost twenty pounds?

[Anonymous]

I am not trying/wanting to lose weight just to get attention from guys...I am doing it because I want to be healthier and in better shape, but would losing the extra 20 pounds I carry around help me attract a guy?

I have been told that I am attractive and what not before, yet I have never had a boyfriend. Would losing weight help?

Feel free to be completely honest...

When I was a size 6-8 then yea I got guys on a pretty regular basis. I'm like a 10-12 now and it's obvious not so many guys are around as when I was smaller, and yes it sucks. But, there are guys who don't mind if you're a little overweight, obese yea they usually care about that! I hear a lot say that as long as the girl is proportional then they don't mind, and well I'm pretty proportional and would be happier with myself if I could just tone up more. We live in a "cover-girl world where guys want all the model types and it's kinda low...b/c how many guys do you know are all toned up and at the right weight?!?!

You said you've been told you're attractive, so are you even overweight to begin with? If so, losing that extra fat will most likely make you even more attractive, but 20 pounds seems like a lot. But then again, you didn't give us your weight so I have no idea.

We can almost all afford to loose 20 lbs. I lost 25 lbs in the last four months and feel much better, physically and emotionally. If you think you can do it, try it. I think you will be amazed at the difference it makes in your life in several areas.

Good Luck

Yes. If you are fat or have any extra weight to lose it does matter. People who say it doesn't are lying. Weight can't change your personality duh but men are visual so the closer you are to attractive the better your odds are going to be. I have gained a lot of weight that I'm trying to lose and when I was skinny more people liked me so yeah losing weight helps!

No it wouldn't help a true guy would want you for who you are inside and out . Not just the outside
