I asked myself and when I am really honest with myself, the answer seems to be, "I want to look in the mirror and see someone beautiful." And because my society tells me that only very thin women are beautiful, I have been focusing on losing weight. But really, the weight loss part is extraneous. What I really want is to be happy with how I look.
So I'm going to try focusing on that and see what happens. I'm going to be happy with how I look, and maybe weight loss is a part of that, and maybe it isn't. We'll see! |
I am a man and I personally find all types of women attractive, slim or fat. Don't worry about feeling unattractive to men just because you're overweight, there are many men who would find you very attractive just as you are. If however you want to lose weight for health reasons then join a gym or eat healthily but don't feel bad about yourself.
