Dating Makes Me Fat

I'm the same way as far as watching what I eat. I have the same concerns as well that I'll come across as a picky eater or make my date uncomfortable if and when I start dating again. I just can't eat like I used to and I don't want that to be a turnoff.

It seems that with the last relationship I was in, she wanted me to gain the weight as to try and make me unattractive to other women so I keep that in mind as well.

I guess that's why I want to find an athletic type women to date. At least they watch what they eat so that'll make it easier on me. I don't know if that's selfish or not but I've got to look out for myself and keeping the weight off is one of my top priorites. It always will be.

We talked. He gets it.

He's been involved in martial arts since he was a child and we discussed moving our memberships to the same gym.

I told him about my fitness goals and he didn't say much, except to give me compliments. He said he was unaware that it was so important, but I think he's got it now.

It's a good sign. I think he likes me.

It's your choice... do you want to go have a good time somewhere, or just sit and eat? As the summer is here, why not go for a short Par 3 game of golf together? The walking is good for you, and trust me... if you're not a good golfer, he'll be more than willing to help you!

Active dates ARE way better than sitting in a restaurant getting all sleepy and full.

Active dates are the BEST.... if I find that guy that invites me to the gym, rock climbing, bike rides , skating... i'd be SHOCKED!!!
I do occasionally date a fellow that went out of his way to get me to a WHOLE FOODS b4 it closed , and ask me daily how my works out went. Im somewhat impressed....but the iceing on the cake would be if he became active with me, just because he knew thats what i liked ;) (pun intended)

This is why I am a big believer in finding partners who are on the same page regarding my fitness and eating routines.


Exactly how I feel. I bust my ass to be healthy and athletic. I can go out and eat like once a week. If I do go out, it's no problem ... just waste of money. I would get chicken and rice with veggies or steak with potatos and veggies. I am at a point where I could eat anything I want. I went to the buffet last sunday and I ate 6 plates lol. I had 4 plates of pure chicken and beef, one plate of rice and one plate of deserts. I was craving deserts so why not. Thing is next day I go back on my diet and start burning it off very fast.

That's good!

I never date or go out with girls who smoke or drink a lot. I quit drinking back in sept 2007, didn't drink anything since then. I didn't even drink in my graduation party, told everyone hell no. They understand why though, knew I was a gym addict. Drinking and Smoking defeats the whole purpose in going to the gym ... something I'll never understand from most people.
