It's a Weighty Issue

There are two types of people in this world.

The ones that don't care one bit about what they weigh and the ones that do.
Some of those people pretend they don't but really they do.

I am one of those people that cares.
Because I could stand to GAIN a few pounds.

Normally you hear about the people that bitch and moan about how hard it is to LOSE weight and how they hate people that can drop weight so easily.
And God forbid, I mention that I can't gain.
"You're so lucky".

Cause, it's nice having hip bones stick out.

I can eat whatever and don't gain.


I can eat all the 1-2-3-4 peanut butter cookies or flourless peanut butter chocolate chip cookies I want, but that does nothing.

Several years ago, I was a little on the heavy side.
So, I started to lose weight.

And I did.
I got to where I wanted and I thought it was all good.

I got all healthy and eating the right foods.
Figured that more money in good food, less in getting sick and doctor bills.

But, I lost some more and I am going to bitch and moan about that.

It's not easy trying to lose, but the same is true if you need to gain.

We are all different.
For some people, it is as simple as calories in/calories out.
For others, it is the type of food you eat.
Some people need more carbs and some people less.

I can keep my weight steady by eating more carbs. The tricky part is getting enough to gain what I need without eating stuff I shouldn't.

I Don't Want No Pretty Boy!

I don't know why, but I have never been attracted to a guy that looked TOO good.

Models or a lot of male actors.

If you look better than me, you just need to go away.

I just have always wanted someone that looked good, but not in a perfect way.

Maybe a too big of nose.
Definitely not perfect bone structure.
Not too skinny.
And not so many muscles that the veins bulge when flexed- that's just gross.

But, I have ALWAYS loved long hair on a guy.

Now, my guy USED to have long hair.
But, he had to cut it for work.
I still miss it.

It went halfway down his back and I would braid it sometimes.

I guess, I am in luck.
Cause there are way more not perfect looking than there are totally pretty boys.

But, it makes me wonder
what makes one person find another person attractive.

Sometimes I just ask myself if that woman is seeing the same thing I am seeing.
Cause I just don't get it.

Maybe that woman thinks I am odd for not thinking that guy is hot.

I know it takes all kinds.

But, seriously
if I most likely weigh more than him and I could hurt him during some "quality time" I really don't want that.
if he spends more time getting ready to go out so he can look perfect I don't really want that.

No, I don't want no pretty boy!
