Today is an anniversary day for me - last day I saw someone years ago who I consider was a wonderful friend. So I'm blue. I've lost other friends - one to leukemia seven years ago for example. Another friend - a woman nine years ago died suddenly at home. This person is very successful and lives across the country, but won't contact me. I guess that is how life goes. The diet however has me feeling better about myself. I think I'm blue also because I'm lonely and since I've lost the weight now I have the confidence to go out and date and meet women. I'm fortunate I think as I'm tall and my female friends like me. Now I'm thin, just have to get in the gym and get toned. There have been women contacting me on one site already - I think I'll have better luck with a picture, I have none up presently. On track so far this week - no excess carb splurging!!!! :)

Hang in there Glenn! I completely understand where you head is at...but keep it up! As my boyfriend told me a few years ago "Confidence is Sexy". I remember rolling my eyes. Now I realize how true it is. I lost my confidence when I gained weight and it affected the dynamics a LOT...now that I've lost a little and am feeling more confidnent again..I see the spice coming back. You'll see the response from the gals too...just keep your chin up, stay confident and all will be great for you!

Acastiglone- it is so true. Now I'm flirting with a lot of women I know like when I was young and dating a lot. My confidence is back for certain. So guys out there - if you are thinking about ice cream or pizza - pass. You'll be amazed at how much better you'll feel about yourself once you lose that extra weight. There is one woman I already know we may start dating and the good thing she's already a bit obsessive about her dieting as she's very thin so she wouldn't have a problem with me being on Atkins. We'll probably end up as friends at the very least as she is quite a bit older than me. I need to focus about what I can do in my future not what I can't! :)

Glenn, just make sure you find someone that shares in your healthy lifestyle. You'll find someone, just don't settle for less. When you find the right person you will KNOW. It is good to start out as friends, if there is a spark you'll find it, but don't try to find it if nothing is there. Stay confident and keep options open with someone. If you decide for them that they just want to be friends with you, you'll send the wrong vibe. Just enjoy life and someone will start wanting to enjoy it with you. A picture would definitely help you on those dating sites. People say men are visual, but women need a point of reference too. I've teased you that you'll always be an "apple" in my mind's eye and that doesn't matter because we're on a diet website, but on a dating site you don't want to be just a silouette with a question mark. Get that photo up! :)
