Sounds like you are better off.

In retrospect....ABSOLUTELY.

And as a bonus, now I get to spend the last year of my twenties getting my life and living by myself and single for the first time ever. It's like finally claiming my independence.

Single here and checking in!! I can't wait to start to live again. I'm pre op and hopefully will have my surgery in the next few months. I was married in 2003 and divorced in 2005. Now I am single with an adopted baby girl. I'm not sure if I'm ready to date just yet I'm thinking in a year or so after my surgery. I'm ready to be loved again. :) good luck everyone with finding love!!

Dating is the worst.

I haven't been out on a date date in like 3 years. It really does suck. I'd rather just hang out with a guy I like. Nothing formal. No plan. I'm more comfortable that way.

I left my ex over a year ago and am much better off. I was really settling with him! I won't do that again. We were together 2.5 years so at this point I haven't gone on a first date in like 4 years! Yikes! I'm already nervous just thinking about it.

So I guess just having that match membership but never actually responding to anyone won't cut it????

You guys will find someone. My advice is be open to someone who you might not consider your type, and don't settle just because you want a relationship you're worth more than just settling.

I have something to share: After two – year hiatus in dating, I put my profile out on okcupid.com. I briefly dated two different men who turned out to be not right for me, but, as they say, the third time's the charm. For the past three weeks I've been dating this very nice young man. I say young because he is nine years younger than I am. I feel 10 years younger, so why shouldn't I date someone who is 10 years younger, almost? :)

I almost forgot to mention: in the past I always posted a full-length picture of myself sort of as a full disclosure on what I really look like and how big I was. I always thought if I lost weight I would put a full-length skinny picture of myself on there and get better guys. Interestingly, at 70 pounds thinner, I have no desire to attract men who would judge me on my size. Interesting,huh?

I broke up with my girlfriend 3 months post-op. I am not sure if it had anything to do with my surgery. I think it had to do more with not wanting to settle. I am hoping to meet someone at a race, support group meeting, or at the gym.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
