Change of plans and we are going out tonight for dinner and drinks. Woo hoo! Please let there be a spark. I am so sick of looking!

Wow I don't have gain during ovulation. I am up 2-5 pounds a day or two before it starts and then most of the week.

I can be up anywhere from 2-5 pounds during TOM but not the rest of the month. Don't you ovulate in the middle of your cycle? (Sorry, I've never had to think/worry about ovulation time)

Hummus! I just tried it for the first time 2 weeks ago and eat it every day now.Delish!

Reading about new workout dvds that I might have to have. LOL

LMAO!

I know what you mean about awkward stuff like this. I always feel like I want to pay for my part, but the guy has almost always paid. I really would prefer to pay for my share because I don't want to feel obligated, but usually they don't let me. However, the ones where I HAVE paid, I do not think any less of the guy. I…

I'm actually the happiest I've ever been in my life (okay, except for when my kids were born :) ). How do you express that on an online dating profile, other saying it (which I have)?

Surprisingly it went really well! We agreed we both want to see each other again but didn't make a date yet. His birthday is this weekend so he has plans with friends/family. I'm glad he didn't try to invite me-WAY too soon! I'm happy though.

Good luck! I have a first date tonight with someone from POF.

Have fun today!

This is a good site to find races in your area: http://coolrunning.com/engine/1/index.shtml

I'm not that fat anymore and that STILL looks delicious to my brain. LOL

Welcome Erin! It's totally a War, not a battle. :)

OMG I was thinking yesterday I should start a thread like this. More for things that I (we) do often. Mine is eating by the kitchen sink. For some reason my brain thinks that what I eat standing there doesn't count. Like peanut butter and nuts. I can stand there and eat 3 tbsp and then suddenly go "Oh *kitten*" and stop,…

Yay! Thank you Luke, for coming out of the musical closet with me!

I spend a ridiculous amount of time reading about music, listening to music, trying to talk to others about music, making playlists....... Most people don't get my obsession. And I don't get why everyone isn't this way. LOL

LMAO. It doesn't get easier no matter how old we are!

I LMAO at that one, too. :happy:

^^^^

I think you're overthinking and worrying too much! I know it's easy for me to say since I'm not the one experiencing it. Just wait and see how I am if I finally meet someone I really like. (I mean someone other than the one guy who told me via text after 4 dates that he wasn't interested. Of course HIM I liked! LOL)…

An example Mel---- On Saturday a new guy emailed me. I wrote him back Sunday morning and we emailed back and forth a bit, and graduated to texting last night. We might talk on the phone tonight (he has a work thing so it depends when he gets home), but either way I'm going to suggest meeting either tomorrow or Wednesday…

Babs proves the point I've tried to make on this board several times. There are no bad sites, just bad people!! I've read a bunch of times that POF is nothing but a hookup site. Now Babs says she's met some nice guys from there. And she felt that the Match people were creepy, opposite of the general consensus. I just think…

Mel, there's a happy medium though. I just posted about this on one of the other dating threads. I have found that if you spend weeks emailing and texting and talking, and don't meet, and then there's no attraction...........well, that sucks. I try to meet someone within a week of the first contact. I don't want to invest…

Thanks Lisa. :) It's kind of hard to admit, but it's true. It sucks to text and talk a lot, and then meet and there's zero chemistry. I'm not looking for more friends lol.

Kate,I've taken breaks, too. It gets discouraging. I think it's a good idea to take a break and let new people join for awhile and then go back to being visible. :) I have one or two guys I might meet in the next week or two. One way or another my profile is going invisible after that. Either I'm taking a break because I"m…

After six months of this, I have changed my mind. I used to take at least a week from first contact to meeting in person. It usually was email, then text, then phone, then meeting. I realized fairly quickly that there's really no point in dragging it out and you're better off meeting faster. If you don't feel a physical…

With someone I met online? Meeting at a quiet bar for a drink. Then if you don't like each other you aren't stuck together for a whole long meal. Does that sound cynical? LOL I guess it kind of does. But I've had a lot of first dates the last few months that were disappointing.

I drink about a gallon a day and have lost just fine. I think it would be extremely rare for anyone to drink "too much" water. It's a great habit to have!

After that post, I have decided that I no longer mind feeling like my calves are big. :)
