Hey!
I think that your weight had nothing to do with your girlfriend dumping you. In my opinion, a 5 ft 9 boy would look much better at 144 than 128. If you feel out of shape, just lift weights but don't worry about losing pounds. Trust me, you weigh less than most guys I know, and they all look good.

Same thing happened to me. Gained 45lbs from boredom over the summer, moved to a new location, didn't know anyone, and my gf dumped me too (pretty similar except the fact that I gained a sack of rice to my gut. Oh and remember this quote from some guy, Don't go for looks; they can deceive. Don't go for wealth; even that fades away. Go for someone who makes you smile because it takes only a smile to make a dark day seem bright. Hope you find the one that makes you smile.
Also if shes trying to change you, thats a bad sign The beginning of love is to let those we love be just
themselves and not twist them with our own image -otherwise; we love only the reflection of ourselves we find in them. Unless shes just one of those phases where you just do it cause everyone else is doing it. Same thing with me. Well take care, if you gained it fast, you can probably lose it fast.
Yours truly
Pat

Even if you do wiegh 144lbs, you're still at a good weight (the weight calculator says so). if your girlfried dumped you just because you put on a little weight, shes probably not worth it. espescially if youre still at a good weight for youre height.

first of all, there is no possible way that you are going to be able to lose all of that weight in a week. it would just not be healthy for you. secondly, if your girlfriend really loves you for who you are, it shouldnt matter what you look like or how much you weigh. if she does end of having a issue with it, explain your situation and hope for the best. her reaction will tell you how she truly feels.
