in Chit-Chat
So I decided when I started back up again after my surgery in April, that I would solely focus on health, weight loss, and fitness and put finding love on the back burner. I feel like I'm not the person I want to present to the world yet, so I'm waiting until I hit goal to date again. Has anyone else done this or am I just burnt out from the "hunt" LOL. Maybe my one true love is on MFP LOL :heart:

    Live your life as you want to which means getting healthy and fit by the sounds...those are things in your control.
    Don`t try to put romance in the same category,it is just different so try not to either push it or shut it out,just let it happen.

    A few months back I decided take a little break from the "hunt" as well. I felt like I was almost settling for the wrong guys because of where my confidence level was at and I rather be alone than be used. I think a good alternative was just hanging out with platonic guy friends because I still get to go out on little movie dates...and there's just no real self-consciousness in the picture. I didn't make it a weight goal until I start looking again..I just gave myself a year off from that and a year to focus on health <3

    I can't love someone unless I love myself . Dating is just not on my horizon as of late.

    ^ This.. I totally agree!

    Although being in shape will maybe give you a confidence boost it wont make mr right come around.

    When you stop looking....Love will find you!!!!
    As far as finding LOVE on MFP!!!! You never know =) There are some Pretty Amazing men on here.

    Bottom Line.. You can't Love someone with all your heart until you Absolutly Love yourself. DO YOU!!! The rest will fall into place at the right time :heart:
