I'm attracted to a girls face more than anything. Cute face>body.
Love this answer :)
Me too! :D
I have always dated women seeing who they are on the inside rather than basing it on just looks or weight. I would rather have an overweight sweet woman than a thin bit&&.
Congrats on getting healthier!
Thanks you! :)
If she was sweet and really nice and the attraction was there I've been attracted to some over weight girls before.
Good job! keep it up! :) :D : D = D
I absolutely will.
Good job :) have you been eating healthy? Drink lots of water, and occasionally lemon water, lemon water regulates your digestive system, promotes your immune system, destroys bacteria & toxins, its high in vitamin C and Antioxidants which is great for skin and immune system.
And what made me lose a lot of weight, I wasn't even trying to lose weight, I was running short bursts as much as I could at a time, for 15 -25 minutes, constantly running well. you know NOT constantly, but most of the time.
you run, until you can't anymore, then you just walk or speedwalk until you regain breath and run again, it will strengthen your heart, but don't push yourself ok? start out doing what you think you can handle, listen to the signs of your body, and keep up the good work, exercising can be fun.
Yep, been eating super healthy ever since the very beginning of this weight loss journey. Also yes to the drinking lots of water part. Thanks for the lemon water recommendation! Will be trying this for sure.
I really like running as well, but it wasn't an option for me at first (too much weight; I would have KILLED my knee joint). Congrats on YOUR weight loss!
yeah thanks lol, but it wasn't what I wanted, I dident want the weight loss, I needed a weight gain haha, I was lifting and taking protein powders and stuff, and still burning off weight that I needed while doing that running thing, I really liked running then.
And I forgot, you HAVE TO drink the lemon water with a straw, its very acidic, and is said to be able to eat the anamel on your teeth, after your done drinking it, you need to rinse your mouth out with water, or milk, I usually rinse with
Lemon water does a lot of good for the body, I couldent think of all the positive effects right off the bat, but its great for external use on your skin as well, but if you put it on your skin, don't go out in the sunlight that day, apply lemon juice externally at night time, it makes your skin glow, kills the bacteria that causes acne, minimizes pores, removes dead skin, high in vitamin c which is great for skin.
Some people are known to be sensitive to lemon juice, so take it easy at first with
LOL. Alrighty then I hope you managed the weight GAIN to get were you wanted. :D
Thanks so much again for sharing about lemon juice. I appreciate it!
Your welcome, I forgot what else I was gonna say...lol, to early.
Happens to the best of us. It's almost 7 Pm here, but...good morning!
haha thanks :o
Good job, you've made a lot of progress! and your continuing!
Patience is the key I guess haha. I'll get there. Thx!
yeah I guess so lol, your welcome.
I do a mix of push ups and different muscle targeting dumbell exercises and mix it up so my muscles don't start to get used to the exercise and just retain physique instead of gain
Thanks! Will make sure to mix it up.
You're welcome, I always listen to music that pumps me up or makes me feel good.
I do that too. Spinning, dancing, whatever...there has to be music :-)
You weigh less than me :o :O
Haha. Go me. :D but it's probably just the fact that I'm not as tall as you. Greetings from my 5'2
Great job on you're achievements non the less, good job!
Nice! looking good!
Thx!
Your welcome, all your hard work paid off!
It really did. 22 pounds to lose & I'm done.
Well, id'e say good luck. But after all you did you don't need it! I know you'll do it!
No. Sorry. It just wouldn't cross my mind to ask out a fat girl. I'm not perfect myself, but there's a big difference between needing to remove two inches from your waist and needing to lose 50 pounds.
To be honest even if I really liked your personality, I couldn't date you. Attraction is what separates a friend from a potential lover. We could be great friends but I couldn't date.
Honesty is always appreciated!
I wish that you had left the updated photos on line as I just went to check them and they were listed as deleted, I was hoping to see how good you are looking now!
I'll reup them again once I've reached ideal weight. Promise! :)
I am inpatient I added you as a friend.
I don't have any requests?! Then again, I don't have any pics on my profile either.
Update 7: WOW that's GREAT work! very encouraging - way to go :)
Thank you :)
half the guys on here are lying. I want a hot girlfriend with a nice body, considering I like her personality
Overweight in your opinion cannot be hot or nice then? Meaning you could NOT be attracted to an overweight girl? - Thx for commenting!
no, an overweight girl can not be hot or have a nice body either.. because she's fat.
i can be attracted to a fat girl's personality but that's not enough to turn me on. but hey different strokes for different folks right? I guess I'm the only guy on this site who likes attractive thin women huh?
Yep, to each his own. And look at it this way...if there are guys that can overlook extra weight to get to know the person (or guys that maybe even prefer larger women) that just means more "hot girls with a nice body" left for you.
thank god
Don't really care but its a lot harder being an overweight guy then it is a women. God forbid a guy doesn't have a six pack. A lot of guys love BBW.
A lot harder in terms of getting a date? Maybe. Not so sure that. I guess I'm the wrong person to ask...being overweight myself and all :).
Yes dating I see more overweight girls with dates then guys.
Question is: Would overweight guys date an overweight girl?
It depends on the guy. But yea I would.
Congrats! You've worked hard, and your looks show it. You've got from probably being a 4 or so to more like an 8.
And that's not size, that's on the looks scales of 1-10.
Lol, I figured. Thank you!
can you give me advice on how you are losing the weight? hopefully you have more advice than "burn more calories than consumed"
Check the Anonymous User question (2 below you). I gave a bit of advice in the comments. :-)
And if you have more question / specific ones regarding what I wrote then feel free to ask and I'd be happy to try and answer them.
bro burn more caloruioes than consumed is the only way, count calories, you can eat anything you want, also lift weights so you look good, find an easy weight program they have a bunch on the internet, do half of an hour everyday and that's it
How did you manage losing so much weight? What's the trick? Pls share...
The trick is NOT to go on a diet or use some kind of diet pills. What I did instead is change my eating habits. No fast food, no sweets, no alcohol. It doesn't have to be cold turkey (you can eat anything as long as you control portion size), but for me "cold turkey" was the best option. I eat lots of sea food, veggies and fruit. 3 meals a day with breakfast and lunch being roughly the same amount and dinner is the smallest portion of the day.
Most importantly I added sport to the mix...
I started slow with a music mix (30 minutes of dancing every day and 15 minutes of additional dumbbell workout every other day) and worked my way up to an hour per day.
My limit is 1300 calories (usually 1000 in the end). But I don't count before eating. I only count after the meal / at the end of the day. I wanted to get a feel for it; control portions naturally instead of depending on some kind of points or cal counting system. This way it will be easier to keep my goal weight.
And as for the "no fastfood, no sweets, no alcohol" aspect of it all. I sometimes eat 2 dates with a spoonful of honey(not more than once a week), or a spoonful of some low fat cheese-chocolate spread if I absolutely feel like I need my sweets-fix. Other than that I even give away the little cookies you sometimes get with your coffee at a cafe. I also drink regular coffee instead of Starbucks and no diet soda or regular soda AT ALL. I put peppermint tea in the fridge. Also...TEAMWHOLEGRAIN
Thank you very much for all those useful tips!
You are welcome. + I've become a fan of salad mix. I use salad greens, bell pepper, corn, cucumber, radish, mushrooms (whatever you have veggie-wise or even slices of apple or papaya - COLD) and mix it all together with a handful of whole grain rice or couscous (HOT) . Instead of eating turkey/seafood with 30gr of couscous AND salad greens I eat turkey/seafood with this mix of everything (but I only use 10-15gr of couscous). It will fill you up & at the same time you get your 5 veggies a day.
I sometimes split dinner in two parts. Part one: A couple of strawberries & a kiwi or the papaya leftovers from the salad... and only later IF I'm still hungry Part two: one slice of whole grain toast with cucumber or a slice of low fat ham. But usually the fruits do the job and I don't feel the need to eat more. Especially not when you mix the strawberries with a spoonful of natural yogurt. This way you don't go to bed hungry and you have a healthy appetite the next morning...
...time for whole grains because they, too, will fill you up for a good long while. :-)
no I wont. it just doesn't work out. I don't want to date a girl that is bigger than me
please stop the updates :/
Does it bother you? Sorry :/
to be honest , I don't mind a girl being a little curvy but if a girl is just fat that has no shape
like she is overweight like 500 lb , to me the girl doesn't seem to care about herself.
Well, I was fat. 250+ is definitely more than just overweight, so I absolutely understand why there's a limit for you / a difference between curvy / chubby / fat. Now, guys probably still consider me to be fat, but I don't look at myself that way and am more outgoing; hence the dating question. Thx for answering!
I think overweight girls can still be beautiful and sexy, so I have no problems with dating them.
I would date her only if she agreed to get fat again with an extra 26 pounds
That's gonna happen...NOT. :)
If she had a cute face, we got along, and she was losing weight then yes I would date her.
I would date an overweight girl, but not that overweight.
Keep at it girl, you'll get there :)
I will. :D
Haha look at you giving advice on weight loss now! I knew you'd make it this far, now keep going. It seems like slow progress but as long as you're moving forward, that's what's important. Keep us posted!
Thanks! I'm usually losing about 0.2 minimum and 0.5 max per week which is in the "healthy loss range". At first when I was 254 it was easier and I lost more per week, but now that I'm closing in on my goal weight it takes a bit longer. I'm not worried though. I'll get there. Will keep you posted!
I eagerly await your 144 lbs update :) Keep pushing!
Plateaus are part of the journey, don't get discouraged!
No worries. I'm not. Especially because I built up some muscles...okay that sounded wrong...it's more like I got a bit more toned? If that's the word. My German to English mental translator is NOT working so well today lol. Bottom line even though I had a two week stagnation scale-wise I made good progress in measurements. Thx again for keeping up with me & my random updates :-). Appreciate it!
You're very welcome :) It's good that you've added muscle, that will help you burn fat while you're not active. It does make you a bit heavier but it's Only muscle!
Not sure what you mean by bingo wings haha, unless you mean flab on your arms when youraise your arms. Triceps workouts should includ triceps extensions, French presses, dumbbell kickbacks, and skull crushers. Look to light weight when doing dumbell and free weight workouts since you don't want to build mass bit rather get sculpted. Also, start doing some jump roping in your cardio if you're not doing that yet. You're doing awesome, keep at it!
Yep, you got it...flab on my arms = bingo wings. Thank you! My dumbbells are ~ 5.5 pounds each. I had half of that before but over time it got too easy and I didn't really feel the workout. Figured it'd be time to "upgrade". :D
Yea focus on the workouts I listed, those hit the triceps hard. And don't worry about "Upgrading" haha. You could probably go up to 20lbs and still be fine without bulking up.
Upgrade lol...clearly English is not my first language haha, but at least you understood what I was babbling about. How's your German? Kidding. Off I go...got a date with two guys: Dumb & Bell.
Haha go easy on them, they don't know what's coming ;)
They survived. Me...not so sure haha.
Lol, that's good! Means you put in some hard work at the gym. Did you try the work outs I told you about?
You bet your behind I did. Probably why it felt so good after I got over the dying part. :D
Great, I expect another update in a couple weeks telling me about your rock hard arms ;)
aye aye, sir. will do. do you have instagram? @sasseka I'm turning into an "update on my healthy fit eatclean weightloss journey" instagram addict. it's horrible. social networking has you in it's clutches & won't let go. - gotta run. things to do; life to live. have a good day. cheers
Alright, new update! Keep it up girl, soon you'll be updating us at 120 lbs :) I don't have instagram or twitter, nor do I even know how they work lol. I have a Facebook though!
I will. But I'm thinking about not updating on here anymore. I just got asked by a question-answerer to please do so. I guess it is because you cannot deactivate the notification once you answered a question. Haven't thought about that.
Aww, too bad. Feel free to add me as a friend and keep me posted through messaging, or we can be Facebook friends and we can message through there. Whatever you feel most comfortable with!
Added you & will message you my Facebook url. :)
Yeah, I would easily date her, no problem at all..but would she date me considering that I have bear body hair!
