I don't think any of us does. But "Relationships" is one of the most worthless boards of C-D. It's only chit chat, fun and drama. Pure time pass.
C-D's real worth is measured in general forums like fitness, fashion, history, business and parenting or the general state boards (data of cities) They are the ones everyone should use more.
This is one of those posts where adding "in my humble opinion" would make you sound reasonable.
I'm currently consider fat (by societal standards) and easy but my husband thinks its great...LOL
LOL! Good for you.
I'm glad that my late spouse was man enough to not be afraid to approach me -- and to be persistent -- when I weighed 240 pounds. Otherwise I'd have missed out on a lot of love and happiness.
I knew that the weight was not going to come off overnight but even after full whole year in 2011 of dieting and exercising with the help of a "trainer" I still wear the same size pants now here in Jan 2012. The only benefit I have gotten was more energy. I love exercise and healthy eating. I like how good it makes my body feel, it helps me cope with my medical problems. 2011 was my year to lose weight. After that experience and many many other years of failing to lose weight I doubt I will lose weight this year. Trainers are pricy, gym equipment is pricy, believe me, I can afford it but I feel that money has just gone down the drain where in it could have been used in a way to benefit myself and others. I was and still am ready to throw in the towel this year but since people here are optimistic I will give it another shot.
Again, I disagree that money spent to improve your health is "a waste." AC alluded to scams involved in some of these weight loss programs..i think he has a point. You cant just give up because youve tried A, B and C...there are still 23 letters left in the alphabet. Lower your expectation and just do it with a realistic goal.. most importantly do not give up.

Please do Amber. I am slender but after going through a divorce two years ago and being an emotional eater, I put on about 15 pounds which looked like a lot because of my slim frame. I did not feel good about it and my clothes did not fit. I went back to the gym 6x/week and I ate healthy everyday (I'm even a vegetarian) and it still took me a little bit over 6 months to get rid of 15 pounds! Do not give up. Exercise is more than looking good or meeting some men criteria's of beauty, it's more about feeling good about yourself and living a longer, healthier life.
Take it one day at a time, and I promise you that the weight will come off eventually. You can do it!!!
Precisely. Plus, you never know if they're interesting in your attributes or if they are actually interested in you. I've gone out with plenty of guys who got frustrated because they thought I would 'put out' because I have large breasts (Thought I was a 38F, turns out I'm a 36GG) and tattoos. No joke, I've actually had men tell me that.
One of the reasons my ex and I broke up was because, and I quote, "I'm embarrassed to be seen with you in public". He said it was because I look like a caricature and he was afraid that his friends would think he was dating a sl*t. Lovely, eh?
I am really sorry you have had to hear all that nonsense. Why must everyone break a person down to sexual components!
And the "attractive" women you guys complain about aren't seen as sex objects? Especially since you and DollEyes are probably just as attractive as the smaller women, but you just don't realize it?
A guy once told me 'you're the kind of girl to f***, not the kind to marry'. So yeah, some women are treated better than others. I will never be that cutesy girl sipping lady drinks at the bar, giggling at all the silly stuff the men are saying. I tried that once and got plenty of attention, but it just felt fake.
