I went from 260 to 180 via keto; and have a few more pounds to lose. I took time off for the holidays, yes I know not good judgement (gained 10 lbs) but I still look good.

Ever since I lost the weight its been an endless amount of compliments: "Wow you lost alot of weight, looking good", "We need to find you a girlfriend", "If you had a girlfriend you'd have more money" (I flat out laughed at that comment to the woman's face that said that one - she was not pleased with my reaction), And as childish as it sounds a woman played footsie with me while I was standing and she was sitting in her chair - as I fixed her printer on her desk, I just laughed thinking while looking at a picture frame of her daughter on her desk as well (RED FLAG!!) "I'm not going to play this game - act like an adult woman" - this woman also asked months back "Are you married?" to which I responded, "Nope, I'm living the bachelor dream!" - she just looked down when I said that, felt damn good - Now I am the one turning down the women.

There is a downside to losing weight sadly - I want to be left alone, I have zero interest in negotiating my time, money, and sanity with a woman at all. If you didn't accept me at my heaviest you don't deserve me at my lightest.

Stay strong gentlemen - do not fall prey to their games and needs, focus on yourself!
