this is going to really sound mean and some will not understand it. . . but since i've lost 150 lbs give or take a pound or two, yes I get more attention from men (more then i care to admit to). . however, i now treat them how i was treated as a fat person. . . i know it's not good to do tit for tat, but all those painful years of being teased, left out, sneered at etc by men has made me really dislike the majority of them. .minus my wonderful hubbie who has been there for me for the past 33 years. it was mostly the guys that hurt me deeply throughout my entire life and now it's my own revenge i guess. . .i don't bother the overweight ones and can totally sympathize with them, but it's those ones that think they are god's gift to women or think they are better then anyone else that make me sooooo sick to my stomach and yes, i'll probably get it in the end. . but that is ok for me.
