Love at First Swipe



Recommended Posts

I am nowhere near ready to date or for a relationship, but I have caught a few episodes of TLC's LOVE AT FIRST SWIPE. They "make over" some hapless person's dating profile, give them a style makeover, etc.

Besides the fact that they seem to have total train wreck's as "clients", they have offered some very good advice for presenting yourself well on online dating sites.

Has anyone watched this? Thoughts? Opinions?

What was tonight's episode called? I am trying to find it to record it, it doesn't seem like it reruns at all this week.

I don't know. I usually DVR it on Friday after SAY YES TO THE DRESS, ATLANTA. and LOVE, LUST OR RUN, that really has some doozies. Both LOVE, LUST OR RUN and LOVE AT FIRST SWIPE seem to wind up with people with some pretty extreme self esteem issues.

Some of the advice is related to the fact that when their profile says "I am cheap and easy." and their profile picture makes them look like street-walkers, they seem to be completely shocked that only creeps show any interest.

Hey, I deleted that part from my profile!

I really want to see the advice they give this girl with the huge boobs. She looks like the club turn up queen, but she wants to be married. Girl, okay. I want to see how they fix her up.

I have not seen it, but I will say that I met my husband online. back in the dark ages. Neither of us was looking for someone, it was just a common interest chat room. :-) he was pretty much in love with me before he ever even saw my picture - but I had been thrown in the garbage by my first husband so I took a little more convincing.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
