re: I work with a formerly fat chick who is attractive now that she's lost a bunch of weight.

Without reading anything else, you never mentioned why she would give a damn what you think either way

It’s amazing what women’s clothing does with cellulite and excess skin. What’s not amazing is fricking a formerly fat chick and her stomach and legs looking like 30 pounds of excess kfc original recipe chicken skin.

The receptionist at my doctor's office was quite plump. At my next 6 month appointment I thought she was a new hire. She had lost a ton of weight but did say, "you didn't recognize me did you?" Before I answered she said that she had become skinny.

I mumbled something and sat down. 6 months later I went in and after I signed in she told me her husband had divorced her because he wanted her to go back to the way she used to look. She said he was upset because he saw how men were flirting with her.

I offered no compliment as I could picture her ex coming in with a gun.

She no longer worked there at my next appointment.

These new turn a fat slob into skinny drugs are the new boob jobs. As soon as I hear that some portly girl is starting to get shots I know what's gonna happen.....

It never just turns out well for them. They are not equip to handle suddenly being mildly attractive. They will leave a husband that would literally die for them to fool around with men who wouldn't bat an eye if they were hit by a bus.

She is saggy if she lost more than about 50 pounds. A few have skin elasticity which can recover, most do not. Once you unwrap the gift you may find it less appealing than you imagine

This. I once knew a gal who lost about 50 lbs. at age 35 and she had skin that hung in small pleats around her torso and had saggy skin on her upper thighs.

She had been pretty big most of her life until she decided to do something about it and she told me her next step was likely plastic surgery to tighten her skin and get rid of the folds.

No. You kind of suck for this.

Why do people say some stuff out loud? Just keep that you are a shallow turd to yourself. If that is how you feel, that is how you feel, but no need to call yourself out for this type of shortcoming.

I think it is an amazingly impressive feat, and if someone if capable of that (and keeping it off), I would turned on by that level of commitment and ability to set goals and stick to them.

It sucks that threads like this get downvoted so heavily. I think these threads are the best part of OT Lounge

Are you under the impression that chatting on an anymore message board is “saying things out loud”?
