Agreed! All great advice.
I too, have been dappling with the idea of joining eharmony or something. I am such an introvert and meeting guys at bars is pointless for me since guys who go to bars are not the type of people I am interested in. But so far, I haven't quite gotten the nerve.
You may meet quite a few creeps. But keep going! You'll have a ton of funny stories at the end and eventually someone both normal, and worthy of you will come along.
But nibog is absolutely right. Patience is key.
Perhaps, instead of saying that "health and exercise is important to you" on your profile, write a sentence or two on how losing a significant amount of weight has impacted your mind. It's not about the weight-loss its about the growth of the person. What have you learned from your journey that makes you a better, more interesting, wiser, fun, more open person? Make it positive but short and sweet.
That gets the truth out of the way, but also elevates you above it.
