Hm... My weight has gone up thanks to antidepressants in the past, and those have always been the times I've gotten involved with men. When I've been thin, I've pretty much always been alone.
I think it's not the body, but the way you carry yourself, the way you project yourself.
Besides, CCL, if you really are trying to lose weight in order to attract a man, that's a good time to talk seriously with a therapist about this. Most men want women who are able to stand on their own two feet -- and they can sense when it's real and when it ain't. Instead of worrying about how you look, how about trying to build up other aspects of yourself? Like, exploring your interests, so that you have something to share.
Good luck.
