ever since starting this new journey with my weight loss ive noticed a huge difference in how men treat me =] starting to get more attention which is scary to me lol. any one else feel that way?

idk but i can say this...after 3 yrs of no dating and 4 of just being single, i finally bit the bullet and let my guard down enough to go out with someone and im totally happy i did. =]

for once it felt good to be able to go out and not worry about how i look and thinking "omg i look like such a cow next to him" and so on....im hoping this leads to something more but all i know is...im happy i finally starting letting others in

I am so happy for you! I am not to the more attention phase yet, but I am apprehensive. Looking forward to it, don't get me wrong, but kind of unsure how to handle it. I have been divorced for 5 years and haven't dated at all for, wow, 4 years.

Thank you for sharing your positive experience!!

i totally understand i gave up on dating cuz i wasnt happy in my own skin and i was just going through a rough period in my life. i quite honestly didnt expect the date go as well as it did lol. ive spent so long putting guys in the friend zone and it did get awkward at times because he wasnt sure if i liked him liked him (i wasnt even sure yet) and if it was a date or if i saw it as us hanging out but we got through it =]

and yes...getting attention...its kind of scary =/ im so not used to it or getting compliments on my looks from guys and im not one to trust so it makes it kind of worse.
