Do we have a chance at dating the really attractive ones?

Post Reply New Topic

I'm not in that margin thankfully. I am pretty curvy and tall which means I carry the weight quite well (people are always shocked by how much I way). Also some clever camera tricks never hurt.

I think ive just realised maybe women are more successful in dating sites because the are more tricky with there pictures

To be fair I thing there should be a line drawn there anyone that big needs serious and immediate help or they could potentially die. :

Out of curiousity is there an opposite limit for you guys? Can a girl be too skinny?

Yes.

So you don't have physical limits in your standards? Like Too fat or too skinny or too short? Come on....you are asking them questions as if you are some saint who's totally appearance-blind.

I don't think that we ourselves can always tell our standards, because often they are irrational. Pretty people often seem nicer and friendlier than conventionally unattractive people.

Yes, of course

Um I have no idea why you are getting pissy I at no point have had a go at them for their preferences and accept people find different things attractive.

I have said that I accept everyone has different standards and you are jumping down my throat accusing me of something I haven't even said

They said they both liked really bony girls so I innocently asked if they had a limit like sly has a limit he will go to.

So you think their limit might be something close to this?

Can't see the image. I don't know what their limit is thats why I asked. Why can I not ask an innocent question?

It is a picture of a skeleton.

Innocent questions are forbidden, only naughty questions are allowed.

I can't speak for them but I would say that anorexia is unattractive and the primary thing is health and the possible lifestyle choices that brought about it. It is a good point to bring up the fact that people can carry weight radically different from one another which really makes measurements like BMI useless. I see both ends as medical conditions that can be corrected.

My heartiest congratulations to you. You won the game of life itself.

Yes I don't like boney women. Cuddled with one and a average/curvy woman. Was more comfortable with the average, the skinny one also complained it'd hurt her so we had to be careful just cuddling.

Replying to this and your previous post.
There's a app call MyFitnessPal. That I used and will be using agin. You can scan barcodes to enter calories. Basically you enter inform about food you eat and workouts you do and it'll keep track of your calories. When you start you set a goal like lose 2 pounds a week and it'll tell you how much calories to eat do do so. It'll also add calories you can eat by calculator if how much you used excercising. My phone has s step tracker which is applied to the ap. Since I don't work out.

I'm at 275 pounds again my goal was to be 230ish.

I dont know as I don't look a lot at guys profiles. Seems to be a lot of chest pictures from both groups. Saw one girl who had very sexy pictures some al last wwearing nothing or in her bra only and said she doesn't want someone interested in sex 0.o

Indeed. It says I should be 180-200. I'd be a skeleton at that weight. When I was 240 I could feel my rib cage. I dont know if I can be skinny without looking super weird. I'll probably always have a belly, always have.its like a 45 degree angle from my rib cage to my hip. How would that work? 0.o

Only if you're 7' tall.

I once worked with a guy who was 6'11" & 285lbs. He was very lean and fit at that weight, but at 200 he'd look emaciated.

I'm 6'2" or so and 198.5lbs and very fit at the moment. I don't look like a skeleton at all. From the one or two photos I've seen of you, I don't think you're even 6' tall, so 180-200 is likely a very reasonable and healthy weight for you to be - depending on composition, of course.

Feel your rib cage at 240? That doesn't sound right at all. Unless you mean by pressing on your chest you could feel it then that's proper and normal. Not being able to do so would have to mean someone was quite unhealthily overweight. It's being able to SEE one's rib cage, because they are so thin, that it can become an issue of being unhealthily underweight.

And maybe you will always have a belly. Plenty of people do AND are healthy, fit, strong etc - they're just built like that. Nothing necessarily wrong with it so long as you are healthy.. but at under 6' tall and 275lbs chances are quite probable that you are currently unhealthily overweight and putting yourself at risk of things like diabetes, heart diseases, joint problems etc w/ the approximately 100lbs of excess weight.

I may be wrong, but from what you've posted about the people around you, I think that part of the reason you don't perceive yourself as being unhealthily overweight is because you are around a lot of people who are unhealthily overweight, which makes your perception be that you are OK, or just a little overweight above "average" because the average you see around you is that people are obese.. which normalizes being unhealthily overweight. But temporarily relocate yourself to an area with lean, fit, healthy people leading active lifestyles and chances are pretty good that your self perception will change to "oh my, I'm not in very good shape at all right now.. maybe I should make some changes." Same goes for others ie my obese cousin who feels very fat here amongst the healthiest & fittest Canadians who took a shopping trip about a 45min drive South of the border into Washington state and he said it was really neat strutting around the shopping mall thinking "I'm the skinny guy!" Ha, funny, buuuut.. dangerous, IMO, as surrounding yourself by even more unhealthy-than-yourself people does not a healthy person make. Not trying to be a jerk here, just stating some facts.
