Soooooo, can I ask how the weekend went? And I'm not talking about the food, LOL. (I'm allowed to be cheeky this once, I've just come back!!!)

Just because I'm happy to have you back, I will divulge some details

At first glance, the guy seemed great: attractive, sweet, nice, outgoing, chivalrous and he's an eye surgeon so he has a very stable career and the nice lifestyle that comes along with it. We had a great time on Sat night with dinner and drinks. The conversation flowed and we had good chemistry

However, on Sunday, I started seeing a few issues. He told me he's high maintanence in the way that he needs a lot of attention in a relationship and has to feel loved. Also, he hates doing anything by himself and needs others to enjoy life. I'm not sure if this is compatible with the way I am. I am very independant and self-sufficient. I take care of myself and my needs. I expect others to do the same for themselves. I also love my own space and down time. I was trying to watch tv in the afternoon and I couldn't get 5 mins without him asking me what I was thinking, why I wasn't being entertaining, why I was so quiet etc. All I wanted to do was get on that plane and come back to my own life where I could be and do whatever I wanted without interruption. So it didn't really end on the best note.

I'm happy to have had the experience, but I also am content with my single life as is. So I'm not sure if there's going to be a next time. Oh, and it didn't help his case that he didn't totally understand my clean eating/fitness regime lifestyle either. No, I didn't want a waffle and bloody mary for brunch on Sunday since I already had my cheat meal on Sat night.

I'm sorry to hear about your weekend, although I kind of got that impression from your log that it wasn't that great. If he's imcompatible though, it's good that you found out now. Especially if he doesn't understand your lifestyle.

Good for you for having a strong will Rooney. You are definitely someone who's comfortable with herself and I think that's wonderful! So many women out there could learn from you. Luv ya girlie!!

Good attitude Rooney.

I'm sure you will find the 'Mr. Right for you' when the time is right You can enjoy cheat meals togethers, then he can
to get you to the gym the next morning post cheat while flying you out to see him for your very own 'personal' training session as needed ...

I'm the exact same way. It could be your body just getting back into the swing of things also.... Give it a few days.

I was having this problem until I got down to about 13%. I know what ya' mean!!! I think I'm up over 13 a bit now and I'm seeing the "easy water" again.
