I'm 6'4" and about 320. Not all fat, but I am a big man, and yes, I'm fat. I'm also well educated and fairly witty. I have a very lovely wife, and have never EVER had trouble getting dates or making friends, whichever I set out to do. Forget the weight. Dress nicely and be well groomed, and hopefully you'll meet people who appreciate a great personality. (I'm presuming you've got one.) Does the Barbie doll in the corner want to shag me all night? probably not at first glance, God knows it's really difficult to see a great personality and talented lover across the room. They're like axe murderers, they look like anyone else. You've got to use your assets.. what's that old song? Accentuate the positive and eliminate the negative and don't mess with mister in-between.
As for Shoe: There are those of us who were beautiful at one time by the magazine standards and a car accident can remove much of the ability to do the physical activities that we enjoy. It's a hell of a bitch to get enough gear on to go play tennis, and I hate walking alone.( and the knee braces, back brace etc...). The weight gain all happened during recovery, and thanks to it's presence, losing it got that much harder. Additionally some people are rather pre-disposed to being larger than others, and flippant smart alec answers like "lose weight" waste your time, mine and his as well.
