I've been serious about weight loss since like November or December. I've lost like 20-ish lbs. This group has been so amazing in keeping me on track, teaching me, and my motivation high. I love you all.
I finally have a little confidence and got back on some dating apps. I made sure to post realistic pictures, not just flattering angles. I've told men I'm overweight and currently losing it. They all say I look great in the photos, then we meet, and none of them are into me. Yesterday, after two weeks of GREAT texts and calls, I go on a date. We literally talked for four hours! He shared so many personal stories, so much that I thought, "Wow, he's opening up a lot." I thought it for sure had to go well for him. As soon as I got home, I got a text that he wasn't physically into me because I was so much heavier in person than he thought. Obviously, I was devastated. My personality was good enough, but not my body. This isn't just about him, this is a recurring text I get, he's just the most recent one this has happened on.
For those that are single, are you currently dating? Should I give up on that part of life until I'm thin and traditionally much better looking? It hurt so bad I didn't even want to look in the mirror to take my makeup off. I deleted my accounts yesterday because I was so upset, but today I'm wondering if it's just the wrong men and if I should keep trying?
Also, I don't even feel like my 20lbs down even count anymore, like they don't matter now that I'm still too fat to love.
