[quote=Anonymous]I would normally also wonder about the 100lb thing but OP mentioned she had PCOS. That Is a hormonal condition is most often accompanied by rapid uncontrolled weight gain and it being very very hard to shed weight - you have to go pretty much carb free or close to it (I have PCOS but got lucky and have the unusual version that doesn’t create insulin issues and weight gain; that is a small proportion of people with PCOS only.)

So, if the situation is someone’s PCOS hits, they put on an insane amount of weight quickly, get diagnosed and figure it out, go on a diet and medications meant to control it and lose that weight, that is quite different from someone gaining 100 under normal conditions because that would require both a length of time and amount of overeating not at issue with PCOS.

This said, OP should find someone for whole being overweight (even if not 100lb) is not an end all and be all because everyone goes through ups and downs. Hopefully you won’t put all that weight back on, for health reasons if nothing else, but you don’t want someone who bails over 10 extra pounds. My DH is overweight now but as long as he’s otherwise healthy, I don’t really care because I love him for him and not the hot 20something body he had 20 years ago.
