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.

      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.
