Just be yourself and have confidence! The right one comes around when you least expect it and will love you for YOU....not how awesome of a selfie you can take. ((We all know selfies are lame no matter how hot you look in them!)) Don't overthink things. Go with the flow and have fun. :)

I also went to FSU! Go Noles!

It's not the quality of pic but just the size. I like how we were able to talk before seeing each other. Hopefully that will help her look past my size.

All you can do is hope. Not to be a cheerleader for your case....but you are working your ass off (literally) trying to make yourself a healthier person. The right girl will see that and appreciate and support you for what you're going through and help you along the way. Think cardio dates, long walks and cooking healthy meals together! What better way to burn calories then with someone you love!? ;-)

I don't have a weight loss date. I've thought about surgery but I have lost 45 pounds in about 9 weeks so I want to see if I can lose without surgery. If I need it I will get it. I gained 200 pounds in five years. I never really had to deal with this sort of obesity and I'm struggling with my body image.

I ended up uploading my picture to my profile here. I also uploaded what I looked like before. Not going to show her the previous me.

Seems like our conversation fizzled out before pictures were exchanged. We went from emails to texting and it seemed to go downhill. I get the feeling she was hiding something. One of the red flags was that her area code didn't match the city se supposedly lived in.

Area codes don't matter, sometimes people don't want to change their number when they move.

      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.
