John,
I have no idea what your agenda is, but in case you haven't
figured it out, you've lost your credibility with almost the entire
readership of the internet. (Ok, it's a slight exaggeration.)
Speaking as someone whose weight goes up and down over a range of
40 pounds or so (Ok, I know it's not healthy, let's not open up *that*
can of worms) I can tell you that
1) people don't treat me any differently when I'm lighter than when
I'm heavier
2) I don't lose weight to get babes, I lose weight because I feel
better, personally, when I'm lighter.
I suggest that in the future you stick to topics that you know
something about.
