Had a co-worker that grew up overweight and started to work out to get ripped. He was running to work most of the days, something like 8 km.
At some point he was discussing about dating, how he made those changes to be more attractive, but in the end he is attracting much more men than women.
It's true. I lost a bunch of weight and got in shape. Not buff, but I got a swimmer's body. I did get some attention from women but honestly I got way more attention from dudes. I still get a lot more dude attention when I go somewhere new.
Men tend to be more forward. If you're not used to approaching women (in an appropriate context and manner), and/or you're on the passive side as a person, you're gonna have a bad time.
Got a family member who cant do pretty much any form of exercise anymore without sending themselves to physical therapy, definitely scared me into action.
A wanna be a stick. A brittle, boney little twig girl. This may partly be in rebellion against all the people who've told me that no one's going to find that attractive. I want to be okay with having a body type that's not for anyone else. But I still do want hugs, and people don't like hugging sticks, so I dunno.

I've been told this doesn't actually work, so instead I've been trying to make myself really pretty with a thicc ass.

It wasn't the muscles but the confidence we found along the way

I want the girls to drool, not blush. So I'm going to go for a Nelly Furtado look.
Yum!
