The way things are progressing with the lovely Miss Noel, my time on Match.com will hopefully be coming to an end soon. But I don't know why I didn't think about this earlier...There has been discussion about creating a dating site for WLS people, well why not just share a link to your dating site profile here.

Mine is: http://www.match.com/Profile/Display/About/?lid=450&uid=VF5xK49Gklufqiad26V30w==

At least by looking at others you might get an idea on how to improve your own.

@@bellabloom - It works, great job on the profile. It sounds like you.

Awwwww thanks!!! I think it makes me sound a little sweeter than I am but oh well!!! I like your too! Your a good lookin' man!!!

I have tried POF but there isn't much on there I'm interested in. Lot if people on there just want to sleep around

Well thank you very much, you look wonderful yourself and your kids look great and healthy. I always have mixed feelings about including kid pics but I think in your case it makes sense, you three are a package deal.

I am dead serious... that has not been my experience

I cant see profiles as i am not a member.

I used to be the...tell everything early on type. I think that was my fear of rejection..like I didn't want to see someone a few times then they dump me when I tell them I used to be obese and had plastics to remove skin....

In my experience, nobody cared that much about it so I shifted gears to that being something that comes up later as we get to know each other.

Some tell me to try Tinder

@@scubav85 - tough for guys, we out number women by a huge factor, but if you live in a big metro area it seems to work

okay, I was on Tinder for about 3 days. It was not my style. a zillion one off contacts, but it never resulted in even a coffee date. The person who originally told me about tinder had the exact same experience. So, if you like your phone app blowing up with lots of random people it's awesome... if you want to meet someone IRL, I am skeptical.

I really like match.com and okay Cupid!!

@@bellabloom I clicked on yours and it says the profile is not available. Okcupid is not bad seems like real people on that one.

I may have to try okcupid

I'm seriously thinking about rejoining the match.com world especially if my friend isn't using my account. I'll talk to her about it tomorrow and see what she says about if she is or not. I don't want to waste the free 6 month period though...

I just ended my subscription to match. I did meet a nice guy who is very accepting of my upcoming surgery this week....although we shall see how far we progress once we 'really' start dating and move forward. But...I am optimistic!!

Cool, a good guy and surgery. Good luck this week. Hopefully the guy prospect will keep the inevitable last minute freak out in check (the "why in hell am I doing this?" moments seem to hit everyone). All packed? Good list here:

http://www.bariatricpal.com/topic/352909-packing-for-the-hospital/?hl=packing#entry3973759. I'd add gasx strips are great (you can use up to 4)

I said I wasn't going to date until next sumer or fall, but I made an OKCupid profile. It has been interesting.

I'm really glad to know there are all these proud Dads out here, but I don't want to date one. So many guys in their 40s with little kids. As I weed them all out I might find someone decent by Nov 2016
