I'd like to offer you different advice.

Quit feeling sorry for yourself and lose the weight.

As a guy its quite easy. I gained a boatload of weight almost as soon as I turned 26, even though my diet and such didn't change much. Its quite normal and quite annoying.

My one salvation has been the atkins diet (which he didn't come up with, the idea has been around since at least the 30's) or at least my personal variation of it (less red meat). This is a very easy diet for most men, you will lose the weight quite fast, and you are never hungry. You might crave some foods you can't have but its a lot better then feeling like you NEED to eat. When I first heard about the diet I thought it was insane and unhealthy but when I did the research, I found it to be quite the opposite. Women seem to have a harder time sticking to this diet for some reason, but I know several men who do well on it.

It does take off the weight, and you don't gain it back unless of course you go back to eating like you used to, which is true of any diet.

For my wife and I in swinging we look for people with good looks, personality and intelligence. No factor is greater then the other, but all factors must be 'acceptable'.

We all want to be loved for being 'just the way we are' but lets get real, no one owes you anything in life so you might as well increase your chances of appealing to more people physically.
