Aim to be even better, Brehette. When everybody checks you out, and your more portly comrades start making comments about how they feel when you are around, you will feel AMAZING. I was always slim, but putting on muscle (widening shoulders, slimming my waist, increasing arm/back size and improving my posture) made me feel better and it becomes a topic of conversation when other people bring it up. You also don't get sore doing menial tasks if you weight train...its a beautiful thing.

Definitely. I plan on being in the best shape of my life after this set back especially since I'm about to turn 30. I refuse to let myself go again.

Trust me when I say weight train. It will improve your figure, your fitness, everything. The absolute worst thing I can say about what I did (drop fat and dramatically increase muscle) is that your clothes will fit weird. My ass got bigger and my waist got slimmer, legs got thicker, and nothing fits right. Large shirts swim on my body a bit too much and medium shows too much (yea, it happens). On the other hand, a higher muscle to fat ratio will highlight your curves even better, cellulite will be a thing of the past assuming you have any, you will be able to be quite a bit more free in what you eat and how much due to actually putting calories to use...I only wish I was about this life 10 years ago.

@LovelyDay , that determination is 80% of what you need to be a success. You are not going to let yourself slip when you have that determination. I agree the weight training will make you look better, but it will also give you the fastest feedback on your progress because you will get stronger faster and will see your clothes fitting better faster.

As for looking good in/out of a relationship, I tend to look better when I am in a relationship. I like keeping those compliments coming.

I blew up when I was with my ex but eventually lost the weight. I can't explain how it happened. I was feeding him steak and potatoes every night.

Define "blew up" and "lost the weight"
