Recently, I started seeing a man. We are dating casually and it couldn't be more enjoyable. I'm happy that he finds me attractive. He doesn't know that I was a completely different person a little more than a year ago. If we get serious, I'll share that part of my life with him, but this is really not the point.
The point is that I finally feel confident enough in my body to be able to go out into the world and get what I want. At my heavier weights, my life consisted of getting sick a lot, meeting friends for fattening foods and drinks at restaurants, and lots of TV nights with snacks. That was about it. It was boring, I was bored with myself. My life was just heading in a dead-end. I didn't even consider meeting men. My logic was harsh, but realistic. If I didn't want to date someone who was overweight like myself, how could I expect anyone else to want to date me? I subconsciously knew that I wanted to be an active person and wanted to be partnered with someone who shared my goals and values for life.
Getting in shape has giving me new goals and purpose. I want to find someone to share my passions and dreams with. I want to experience new adventures that my weight might not have allowed me to attempt. I want to succeed in my goals and for the first time, I actually think I can do it!
This handsome guy might come and go, but the confidence and respect I have gained for myself is priceless! Thank you dietbet. I'm going to get to the end of my journey, I know I can do it!
