I am one of those people who have struggled with weight all their lives. I am still not exactly skinny, but through healthy eating and a very active life, I am pretty fit, and my weight is under control. I am sure that there were men who have rejected me because of my size, but there were plenty who didn't, too. The reason I couldn't date someone who was extremely overweight is because I would be afraid that it would affect my own eating and exercise habits. Kind of like why recovering alcoholics shouldn't hang out with drunks. My Love now is pretty chunky, but not extremely overweight. I am still attracted to him, and we are working on his weight. On the weekends, we go hiking, or I just get him to help me around the farm. Cutting firewood and putting up hay burns a few calories, for sure. I really don't like moobs, but I am willing to overlook them in him.
