Welcome Suzie! It's nice to talk with other single people. I do enjoy it. It's amazing but we all have the same feelings, no matter how much difference we are in age.

Hi Suzzie - welcome!

Ok, I owe you guys a fill-in. I had a date this week with a 29 year old. He was HOT. lol. I don't think he's relationship material but I'd go out with him again just for fun. I figure I deserve some of that.

I have another date tomorrow night, and it's one I'm actually looking forward to if you believe that. lol. We'll see though. I've learned to go in with no expectations so I'm not dissapointed. Sad, huh? lol

Oh and I heard from tattoo boy today. I knew it was just a matter of time. lol. I'm all set there thank you.

So that's it with me really. How's everyone else doing? How are things with you Wootsie??

Hey there...My reply is--you should have some fun and don't expect anything. That is not a sad thing. Many of the Men are expecting the goodies. Make the evening an evening of fun. Thank God you're having fun. Myself--with a simple 25 pounds goine since March 28th banding date. I have a few more looks--flirts. I told myself--the same ones who looked at me side ways when I was at 270--will be the same ones who I ignore. I am going to be soon a 50 yr old single dad of 2 boys. I may start my way back to the dating world. I have a goal--lose 40 more pounds by summers end. I am told that it's impossible. Then again...I was told that I would only achieve 2 pounds a week too---when I clicked off 5.2 per week. How I did it--walking on the treadmill 1 hours when the weather stopped me from riding my bike. Then some crazy workouts--2 times a day--3 days a week---then the next 3 days--single rides--at 3 to 5 miles a day....Love will be there...don't you worry..LL

That's exciting, Crispy! Have you talked to him before, or only emails?

I still haven't posted a profile yet. I'd like to lose 20 more lbs before I get started with that. I lost 5 this week after such a long plateau. I hope it

doesn't take me another 2 months to drop again.

Denise - I think you are beautiful at the size you are so no need to wait! But you do what makes you comfortable. As far as tonight, we only spoke over emails, but they were pretty lengthy and I could tell he was a really nice guy. I just got home and he was very, very nice. I had a lot of fun, and I think we're going to go out again.

I heard from the 29 year old as well. I didn't really think I'd hear back because he's really cute and out of my league a bit I think. lol. My friends hate it when I say things like that. lol But anyway, he wanted to go out tomorrow night but I have wedding so we're going to meet up afterwards for a drink. Should be fun.

Thanks for the reply Lee! I'm all about the fun these days. ;) Sounds like you're doing well with the band!

Thanks Crispy, That picture that you saw is old. I still have about 10 lbs to go down and I'll be at where that was taken. I am not in any real hurry. I look on match and yahoo and there isn't one picture on there that even sparks my interest.

There is another place called singlesnet.com. I paid for a month and they said they had a money back guartentee. So after a month I said I wanted my money back because hardly any men from my area were listed on there.

They ended up giving me a year for the price of a month instead. I may try that again.

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

        That sounds awesome. I'll have to check that out thanks!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
