I think for myself it comes down to this; I work hard at maintaining my shape, health, and overall well-being. Why would I want to be with someone who didn't have the same interests? it comes to more than just being " nice", you have to click with someone, and share things together. Good Luck to you

Oh they do!!!!!!!!!!

Otherwise my fat azz would still be single!

But almost all women like a confident, positive-spirited man.

I'm kind of shallow for good reasons, and I'll admit it.

The correct term is also "over-fat". Weight means nothing. I've never been under 165 and I had a 10% body fat. Muscle weighs more.

Being "overweight" gives the impression of being unhealthy to me. I've worked as a trainer and a nutritionist most of my adult life. There's no reason for it, just lack of motivation and self worth.

People can argue that they are ok with their bodies when they're over-fat but we all know you're not happy. You're not happy with the size, with the attraction of the opposite sex (or same, your call), not happy with how clothes fit and your body isn't happy with itself. You may not even be able to feel it but your blood pumps harder, your cortisone increases as do your risks for cancer, stoke, diabetes and heart disease.

That said, why would I go out with someone who doesn't care enough about their own health knowing all of the risk factors? How can someone fully care about me if they dont care about themselves? What if we have children? Are they going to pass these traits on?

Sub-consciously (sp) we are programmed to want a healthy body type because we want that for the next generation. It goes back to our ancestors' survival of the fittest.

AND ITS EASY TO DO! You can eat ANYTHING, just make sure you stay in a calorie range and eat the serving size (for example: 1 box of mac n' cheese is 4 servings. Just because it fits in one bowl doesn't mean its one serving). Make healthier food choices. Excercise 30 mins a day, thats a a brisk walk around the neighborhood.

One shouldn't compare to the rest of the country either (U.S.) we are the fattest country ever. A size 15 woman may be "average" here but its "obese" when compared to the rest of the world. Compare to your own body's health, aka check your lipo levels.

This is why I wouldn't go out with a bigger guy. By overweight I'm talking MORE than 20-30 lbs max. I'm not going to knock a guy for not being perfect, no one is. We've all yo-yo'd. I'd go out with a guy who could stand to lose 20-30 lbs if its distributed right.

So, boost your sex-appeal, be HEALTHY. No one's requesting a six-pack, just a healthy frame.
