Aieeeeeeee! John, hello from planet earth. Sometimes people lose weight 
because it will make THEM feel better. As in, healthier. As in, more able 
to do the things they want to do. Or because it's easier to find nicer 
clothes in the smaller sizes. Or because they're curious to see how 
they'll look. Or because... of a lot of reasons that do not have to do 
with attracting exterior-seeking members of the desired sex. Yes, some 
people lose weight to present an image. But Gail said she did not, and 
you are saying you don't believe her? Funny, she's never struck me as 
dishonest.

Feh.
