Re: Guys being creeps to you after weight loss?

I haven't had that exact same experience. But I did go to from a size 10 to 14 to 10 again, and I definitely noticed the lack of attention I got from men when I was just that little big bigger (though there were a few outliers - a waiter at a cafe giving me serious eyes and a free pie was one of them, lol). And now having the same attention back again - it's just weird. I already had issues with my body image and relationships, and the whole experience has just added an extra twist to it.

But I'm also at a better place mentally now - and what the experience has also done has made me determined to reach a peace with my body and how guys relate to it, and to realise that there are nice guys out there who are going to like me for me, and not just how my body looks right at this moment, even if they also like that as well. It's also made me know I need to be kinder, not only to others but also to myself. I'm okay, you're okay, we're all okay.

I'm still working on it all, but I'm trying. I hope you reach a point of peace with all of these issues too! (Oh, and congrats on your work so far!)
