    I definitely wouldn't mention it unless it organically came up in discussion (say, he mentions that HE'S been working on losing weight). It can sound like you're obsessed if you randomly start talking about weight loss.

    Weight loss is personal, unless he brags about competetive eating contests he has won, there is no reason to bring it up at all really. Be honest about your lifestyle so you do not mislead him into thinking you live for eating and skinny just comes naturally. If you start the relationship off as couch potatoes, you might still be there in ten years if it is true love, if you mix in active dates, maybe you can be successful and in love at the same time. Good luck to you!

    No...and no talk about ex-boyfriends either.

    Nope, I don't think you should... and? As for being nervous -- think about that nervousness as anticipation and excitement. They are actually the same emotion - it's just how you label it. Remember, he's on his first date too - so probably also a little nervous. It's just a date, it's not a promise of forever... Go... Have Fun... Laugh... Enjoy...

    Good Luck - hope you have a great time!! :)

    I'd just concentrate on being who you are now and learning about your date. If it feels right to bring it up, it feels right. If not, don't. Just let the conversation flow naturally.

    This ^^
