As we grow and mature, overweight individuals often find themselves being at a disadvantage in dating and forming long-term relationships.In surveys looking at college-age participants, overweight individuals are often less likely to be chosen as sexual partners when compared with those who are thinner.In hindsight, we shouldn't have gone to a Chinese restaurant, as there are few choices there that even today I can eat.It's hardly a surprise that people who are obese face considerable discrimination.But to answer your question directly, I would date a woman who had a weight los surgery, sure why not?I am now trying to dating after weight loss surgery off the weight I put back on, and then lose the rest of the weight I was originally trying to lose.But weight bias also plays a powerful role in the kind of relationships we form.Studies have found that even preschoolers are more likely to choose thin or average-size children to play with rather than overweight ones.
Other researchers looking at mate choices in undergraduates found that thin males are less likely to view formerly obese individuals as potential mates.In general, people who have undergone bariatric surgery (including stomach stapling or gastric bypass) tend to be viewed more negatively than people who lose weight through diet and exercise.Studies showed that people who have had this kind of surgery tend to be rated as lazier, less competent, and less social than people who are seen as having lost weight by more conventional means.Originally Posted by christyk28 That is exactly why I was thinking of telling them early on It's as if you read my mind lol. They are all just tools which allow some people to reach a healthy goal. What were some of your concerns about attention from men and dating?Exactly what I asked I just wanted to get feed back and I know you weren't directly saying that stuff using me as an example but other people might see it as you were, and I just to see if dating after weight loss surgery guys would be cool with it or not and at least it I got some guys opinions thats all I wanted to find out. My 1 concern was that I would resent men who suddenly paid attention to me because I was thin.
