Rather than having multiple threads, I thought it would be helpful to have one thread pinned to the main page where new members could check in and look for support.

Venting... why all the games?
Here's the back story so you can fully understand the situation (I'll try to be brief): I met "Irish" in early November for coffee. We had emailed on okc for about a month or so because he was out of the country on business but as soon as he returned, he set up our coffee date for 4 days later. We spent over 3 hours…

Downgraded date
Ok... I'm still getting back into the dating scene and don't really know all the rules so I wanted to throw this out to the group. Met a guy from okc on Tuesday for coffee. It went really well. We talked for 3 hours about all kinds of things... at the end of the date, he asks me out again. Suggests we have a "real" date,…

I went on a second date with this really nice guy last night. We have a lot in common and I do enjoy talking to him. Here's the situation: He just started a business in the last 12 months.

I'm not yet at my UGW. I've actually been on a plateau for the past 2 months due to surgery, but I've decided to celebrate my progress wherever…

Major NSV - read if you get obsessed with the scale!
Like so many people on MFP, I have had clothes in my closet in 3 different sizes for years... mostly in business suits since I'm a lawyer by day so I need to have suits that fit properly no matter what size I may be. It was when I had to buy a "bigger" suit for an interview because I didn't fit into my "fat" suit size that…

5'4" Almost 40... Life changes needed
I found MFP about a month ago and I'm now adjusting to the eat more to lose weight philosophy. I started my weight loss last July after I saw some awful pictures from my 39th birthday and decided I would NOT look like that for 40!! I really didn't know who that person in the pictures was... it couldn't be me. I realized I…
