Hey, I like reading profile paragraphs but think some guys might think it an effort to reply in such manner. Your being genuine narrows the field, which isn't all bad.

reading that on someone's profile says that she's driven, motivated, and cares about what she looks like. it's a big thumbs up.
ask yourself this when you're thinking of posting it - what's your motivation for posting it? don't post it if you're looking for approval. do post it if you're proud of your accomplishment. |

As long as your pictures are recent there is no reason to post you are in weight watchers or any other kind of program.. The problem comes in when people post picture of themselves 15 years younger and try to pass it off as current and that happens a lot! If all a guy (girl) is interested in is finding arm candy you might not want to be with someone so shallow anyway Congrats on the weight loss! You go girl

And you know what (I'm also a bigger woman) you could always say you're in shape because you are... ROUND is a shape! No I'm only kidding. I would leave it out at first. I'm so proud of you on the loss though. I'm trying to get to back to the points too. Tough to make changes. I think you're doing great!!

Hey congrats on the weight loss....I also lost a big amount of weight 125 pounds, so good luck on your diet!!
I wouldn't put that on your profile, I would save that for maybe a topic in an email. That could be a good ice breaker Good luck on your weight loss and I hope you lose all that want to and I hope you maintain it and always stay healthy Unsure |

I personally am a curvy kinda gal and very much think I am sexy in my own way. I think if I understood correctly that your question was aimed at the fact that when on a site such as this or any dating site the first impression a person of the opposite sex get is the pic then you have very limited space to sell yourself after that. First impressions are everything. So cover the things that matter most to you that you feel would make someone interested. Instead of mentioning Weight watchers why don't you find a catchy phrase like I lost _ pounds and still losing! damn proud of it. I don't know off the top of my head but put some excitement and show off your pride! I think you look fabulous keep up the great work!

Why would they have to know that you're trying to loose weight? To me that's no ones business, but your own.

QUEEN BEE is right. After you've chatted with a potential date, then you can mention it. Guys always complain about this issue, so be up front. I personally am thin, but I was 30 pounds heavier once, and I still get mad if guys complain about a woman's weight. They can hide it better (unless we're talkin obese) and lose it easier. Weight is relative; I believe in PEOPLE, not pounds.

As a guy here is my opinion. If your trying to loose weight, it tells me your uncomfortable with your body. Personally that's a turnoff to me. Some guys will like the fact that your trying to loose weight, but if someone doesn't accept you for who you are, what happens if you can't loose more weight? Or worse yet, if you gain it back! If someone can't accept you for who you are now, can they truely care about you?

They can see what
you look like in your picture. It's not something you need to volunteer on a first date anyway. You can mention it later if you want, but I think there is more to being attractive than what's on the outside, even though I think you are attractive. Someone worth meeting will look at you more than for just your looks. |
