| Would any of you Ladies date fat guys? Posted: 6/14/2005 7:24:16 PM | hi sid, yes I know I am diabetic and I have read the information on atkins. I just don't like meat. My body tends to produce an over amount of protien and if you know this much on carbs. then you will know that the body eating meat will also add protien and it will destroy the liver at some point. I know that for the first two weeks of the atkins diet a person is to consume 20 carbs or below a day. this is to kick in keytosis that is the process in which fat is burned. some don't take and read however if I am going to do something I want to know all I can find out about it. a person that likes meat is at a better chance to lose weight with atkins then I would. as I stated in a prior post I consume from 800 to 1000 calories a day and I am losing because of it. My body will not allow me to consume more with out gaining weight. am I gain drinking water. I think my body is working against me at times. But I will win. I know I have had several ladies that asked me to back off of my diet and there have been some lovely ladies I have dated while larger but my health is more important.

Not to threadjack but...
Mound: The human body doesnt produce much protein naturally, hence the need to intake it for a good balance. This being said, does your body not process it very well, or does it indeed produce to much of it on its own, or both? Have you been to a specialist to confirm this, or is this just something you self diagnosed?
ketosis can be a nasty thing. I did it for 2 weeks (less then 20g carbs for 14 days) and I lost 15lbs. I assume it was mostly water weight...but i havent put that back on. Also you run the risk of raising your chances of kidney stones when you do ketosis, so be carefull if you do it.
800 to 1000 calories is not enough to keep a normal body in prime operating ranges, hence why the recomended calories for a normal person is 2000-2500. I think thats to much myself, I run around 1500 on a normal day. IF you intake to many calories you store the excess as fat, to less calories and your body goes into survival mode and it tries to store calories for later use...as fat. We are children of evolution and when you deprive your body of calories it knows it and it goes into a fat storing mode.
It sounds like you need to chat with a nutrionist to get a good plan together for your body and how it processess (or doesnt) certain things. also look at daily vitamins (not the crap you get in the local grocery, REAL multivitamins). If you cant eat meat for protetin, eat beans and other non red meat protein source foods. If you cant eat either, there are protein supplements. If you dont have enough protein you lose lean muscle mass, which does you no good.
Being that you are diabetic you need to be extra carefull with any diet or fitness routine and really need to pass it by a trained doc to be sure your not doing damage to your insides.
Best wishes.
edit: btw i am 6'6 250. So I fall in with the "large guys" catagory, so I speak from a large guys perspective. | |

| Would any of you Ladies date fat guys? Posted: 6/15/2005 3:16:05 PM | The last two guys i dated were on the heavy side. I am atraccted to heavy guys. It sucks though because they dont hit on me. I had a crush on this guy for a while he wouldnt make the move so I finally asked him out on a date. he though it was a mean joke and wont talk to me. he dosnt believe that I actually am attracted to him. Its really hard for bigger guys to approach me. they never do. I hate skinny guys and I hate six packs I like a guy who can eat. who I can cook for. I LOVE FAT GUYS  | |

| Would any of you Ladies date fat guys? Posted: 6/15/2005 4:08:16 PM | Heck Yeah! I'm 25 (of course I'm a big girl myself but I have the BEST personality you'd want to find!). I've dated guys that were 100 lbs and guys that were 500 lbs! (one was technically 525 but who's counting?) I want to love a big man because he knows what it's like to be looked at the way I am... sometimes men do the "loathing" thing and I hate that.... a large man would know what it's like to be used and turned away. I think big men are supersexy! :)

| Would any of you Ladies date fat guys? Posted: 6/15/2005 4:23:26 PM | wow oh wowie wow
first, to answer the question, yes.. most definately and for all the reasons stated above with a few exceptions er.. like the one about better lovers... i don't think that has much to do with diddly though it can be important (almost like saying all african/americans have huge whowho's no? stereotyping big 'ol time)
now.. one thing that has me curious is how come when we talk about large men, most of the women are all for it. YET when you post the same question but add the WO in front of the man.. the ratio reverses... most men say "i don't think so!"
an observation... but any answers? | |

| Would any of you Ladies date fat guys? Posted: 6/15/2005 4:28:31 PM | hi madrox, yes I know of the protien and what my body does. I have had about five docs explain to me on what is happening to mine. my doc told me to back off the atkins diet due to the protien that I was building as well as some of my meds I have to take increase the protien in the system. I have talked to a nutrionist on several accasions. wel worked out my diet to help bring down my weight but all I did was gain. I am checked every three months and just had one this past week. seems that you know somethings on a diabetic so here is what I heard a doctor tell another doc after reading a test I had had done. Now she didn't kow I could hear her. she told this trainee that I was one person that had my diabeties in control. I was shocked for I had not gotten the results of my blood work or testing yet. she never did tell me the results but I had an appointment with my doc right after her. I asked him to explain what she had meant. he told me that normally a person with diabeties would run a count of around 7.0 when doing a check on the blood. Mine was running a 6.1. his words were to continue doing what ever it was I was doing. well I watch what I eat but I stay in the range I mentioned of 800 to 1000 calories a day. this is until I reach the desired weight I am longing to reach. then I will increase until I start to gain and then cut back to maintain the weight. I have went over this with a doc to be sure on how my body is handling it. He was shocked that I was in better health doing this than I was just after my testing before he did that one.it was in a 3 month period.

| Would any of you Ladies date fat guys? Posted: 6/15/2005 10:19:38 PM | redneck woman, I will answer that question here in this thread ok. I have dated women of different sizes. the size of the woman doesn't matter to me. I just have to feel something in me for them is all. It is the inner person that matters. I have dated women from 105 pounds to over 350 pounds all because they attracted me in some way.
Princess keep trying you are a lovely lady you will get the one you want for sure.

Very cool..glad you have everything in check. Sounds like your on top of it!
Well done. To many people with diabetes dont take it seriously and get complications from it. You sound like your on the right path, keep it up. :)

| Would any of you Ladies date fat guys? Posted: 6/16/2005 5:53:19 PM | redneck, Not sure why men are that way. I know several guys that are and quite a few that are like me. I personally think that the ones that think that way are not really out enjoying the things the world has to offer them. the ladies that are small and look nice and sweet are like candy to guys like that but they don't realize that the ladies that are of size can offer just as much or more. I have never figured out why they are so shallow minded. I just don't think in those terms is all.

| Would any of you Ladies date fat guys? Posted: 8/2/2005 7:27:22 PM | Hey FLCOWBOY, I think that a man that is a bit portly is just a big sweet teddybear n that they r nice to hug n keep a girl warm on those cold Florida nights...n being a 3rd generation Floridian I can say It get's purrrrty cold sometimes n a big man is nice 2 snuggle up 2... and besides that... if somebody is so shallow that they r hung up on looks and don't take the time to get to know the wonderful person inside n not judge the outside... like the old saying goes.... u can't judge a book by it's cover!!!! N nobody should...unfortunately most only care about the colorful outside wrapper | |

| Would any of you Ladies date fat guys? Posted: 8/31/2005 5:26:57 PM | | I love it when girls are into a big guy, cause we're more of a man to love. I have been with my fair share of gorgeous women, but I look inside as well. Gotta be that total attraction as well, not just for looks. | |
