Single people trying to lose weight? Sign up here

First off, I'm not trying to start a dating service or anything. But it seems almost everyone on CC is married and I know that can't be the case.

While it's great that they are married, single people have different reasons for losing weight, they have different pressures involved, and they don't have any spouse they can depend on for support.

I'm not saying it's harder, in fact we also have more time to dedicate to weight loss (saving single parents)

But this thread is for the single people I know there are on CC.

how about we unite! because there will most certainly be a war against the married people in the coming months (j/k)

I'll start. I'm 24. I've been single for about 4 years now. I got out of a long relationship with a girl that could've been the one, but we just were in two different places. Since then I went into a deep state of depression a few years back, and gained a bunch of weight in addition to pretty much giving up living life.

Well, I heard a song (Jimmy Eat World- 23) that changed my life, as corny as it sounds. Since then I have been working on different phases of getting my life back, and weight loss is now.

However, eventually I am going to try and tackle dating, and it's a scary thing. I've had a few encounters in these past years, but they just didn't work out.

Who wants to share similar stories? Don't leave my hanging people

your still young tho, but i cant say much, my sister is your age and she has been dating someone 2 years older than her for about 2 years, and im pretty sure they will get married, lucky girl...and im the older sister not even in any kind of relationship..haha

It's been over a month since a post in this thread. How are people doing?

I haven't really been on cc.com this month, and it's been a really busy one.

Hey Guys - I joined the site a couple of weeks ago. Been doing really well with counting calories and getting into shape. LOVING the site.

I don't normally post this kind of information on networking sites, but the support in these forums is just too good :)

I'm 24 and have been in and out of short-term relationships for almost 4 years (4 years ago I got out of a very serious 2-year relationship). My last relationship ended a couple of months ago when we moved to opposite ends of the country from one another. He wanted to pursue his career in CA and I wanted to pursue mine in MA. I'm an expert when it comes to poor timing, haha. I miss him, but life goes on.

Since I moved to MA (in February) I have just been trying to settle into my new lifestyle...

I joined Calorie Count in October and absolutely love it. =)

I'm really embarrassed to say this, but....

I'm 23 and I have never had a BF in my life. I guess I don't have what it takes?

Anyway, I have lost 35 lbs. since I began taking control of my life and could not be happier.

Right now I am focussing on my teaching career and losing weight, but it would be nice to meet someone too.
