LADIES ONLY: Dating before and after weight loss
If a guy knows you at your heaviest, but then sees you at your lightest and takes a sudden interest....... do you go for it? Or do you hold off thinking - he should have gotten to know me before I lost the weight, as I'm the same person, just smaller?

How do you tell someone they're not quite there yet....
I have this coworker who after seeing me drop about 30 pounds decided to go on a diet and get back to the gym.

My first NSV
I was awakened just the other day by my boyfriend patting my side. Figuring he was just searching for the television remote, I ignored him. When he rolled back over and the television didn't turn on, I asked him what he was doing. He said, "You feel different. You feel smaller." Yeah :-)

Elliptical Machines and Dead Feet
Does anyone else have their feet fall asleep when using an elliptical machine? I like to use it for an hour, and every twenty minutes or so, I have to get off the machine and walk around a bit until the feeling comes back to my feet. I've tried changing my shoes, loosening the laces and my trainers and even move my feet…
