So I am watching the show More to Love. I am kind of speechless. As a "plus size" girl, it is nice to see a show that is made for us. I have struggled with my weight since my mid-20s. I was in an abusive relationship and turned to food as a method of control. The only thing I could do was feed my depression and hopelessness. To make an incredibly long story short, I am still working on my weight and have fluctuated drastically in recent months. It really does affect how I interact with people and I tend to shy away from social situations because I am embarrassed that I let myself go- again. I am working on it, but there is a lot of ground to cover. As for dating, I am reluctant to even put myself out there because I'm afraid that the "type" of guy that I like, typically does not go for a girl like me. I hope that this show makes more women with curves feel confident and beautiful.

I know you have have heard it all but, you have to love yourself before you can love anyone else. I have been big most of my life. I lost all it and kept it off while in the service. I know how you feel about being self conscienious about your weight. However, you are a beautiful person; and have a lot to offer someone and they have to accept you for who you are. I have also learned that if you really want to lose weight and keep it off, diets do not work. You have to understand it is a life style change that you have to commit to. The mind set with a diet is that when I reach my goal it is all over and I can return to the way things were before and that is just what happens you put all that weight that you lost back on. With a life style change you eat and live different for the rest of your life knowing that you can not eat like everyone else.

Bellive in yourself and do not give up you are beautiful.
