Would you move for the chance of finding love?
I actually am very comfortable where I am. It's close enough to family that I can see them regularly (and get there quickly in an emergency - aging parents) but still far enough away that I have my own space. I really like the people I work with. Even though my job might not be ideal for long term, it's fine for me at the…

Introducing Myself
Just joined this group, so I figured I'd introduce myself. I've been trying to loose weight (again) for about a year now. So far I have lost about 80 pounds (50 with MFP), and have about 45 left to go before I reach my goal weight. I have struggled with my weight since my late teens due to medication that didn't help some…

Random Question
So kind of a random question, but what would you do in this situation? There's a woman I work with and she had some guy stop by her desk to talk to her about a week ago about whatever, I don't know, something related to work. I noticed him, he seemed kind of cute. So I guess when he got back to his desk (he works in a…

Where to meet new people?
I got out of a long-term relationship a year and a half ago. I started online dating but that did not end well.

We were…

Fell off the wagon
UGH!!!! Had an off week to say the least. Now I feel like crap. It is so true...eat like crap, feel like crap. I am so close to the upper end of my goal, which is where I want to be by my 50th birthday in 6 weeks. I need to lose just a pound a week to get there. Cannot afford to lose focus like that again.

I mean, it's BAD. I've lost about 40lbs since September and have 60 more to go to my…

In love but...
I am terrified to actually say it. I loved him years ago and still do. I always have said I would never get that involved again. Yeah...until he came crashing back into my world last fall. Now it is all I want. Every time he calls, when we hang up I just think "God I love that man." When we are together he says things like…

Christmas Shopping with the ex...
I don't know why I agreed to go Christmas shopping for the kids/granddaughters with my ex. If I don't go he just calls me every 10 minutes for my opinion.

Blast from the past...I am nervous!
I am new to this group and am so glad I found it! Last week, seemingly out of the blue, I was contacted on Facebook by a man I last saw 9 years ago. We ended the relationship back then for good reason. I won't go into detail here but it was not because we didn't care for each other. At the time it really was for the best.…
