Hi... i'm new here and even though there are many reasons I want to lose weight (about 5 stone) there is one reason in particular that some people may disagree with. The person I would really like to spend the rest of my life is really trying to hold back from getting involved with me although it's clear there are feelings there. Even though he hasn't admitted this I know it's because he doesn't want to be lumbered with a 'fat' woman. Now i'm fairly sure most of our instincts here would be to slate the guy and say it's shallow etc but is it really?? Having given it a lot of thought I really think it's understandable that somebody would want to be with someone who is at least reasonably slim and more importantly healthy.. We all know that carrying alot of extra weight holds limitations on our physical activity... for example I would avoid hill walking like the plague right now... I don't like to go swimming due to how I look... and so I was wondering when you really think it through if you also think it's understandable for somebody to be hesitant about getting involved with somebody with alot of extra weight.
Thought this might make an interesting talking point.
Happy dieting.. Amanda
