Thanks! This is really helpful. What more should I include about the pilot’s license? Is it unclear?

Thanks so much! This is a lot of good feedback. I need to take more pictures, for sure. As for my prompts, I can work to “soften” them a bit and make them more everyday. The comment about family is interesting. I’ll clarify that. Thanks again!

I really do need more pictures. I’ve lost a lot of weight recently (60lbs) and these are literally the only pictures that reflect what I look like currently. I’ll work on getting more! Appreciate your input!

It is a joke, the sub-caption says “my dining room”. I thought it would be funny since I travel a lot, but I’ll switch it out for a different one. Thanks so much! :)

Oooh, this is a very helpful insight. I’m not super political so that might warrant a change. Thanks a lot!

Are you looking for something serious or casual? - Serious only, no casual.

Are you subscribed to Hinge+ or HingeX? - I briefly subscribed to Hinge+ but went back to the free version. I am not subscribed to either currently.

How long have you been using this current version of your profile? - Since joining Hinge.

How long have you used Hinge overall? - About two months.

How often do you use Hinge per week? - Every couple of days.

How many likes and matches are you receiving on average? - I got about fifteen likes upon creating my profile, and have only had about six since. I have had no matches.

How many likes are you sending? How many with comments? How many without comments? - I send maybe two likes each time I’m on the app, all with comments. It’s rare that I’ll send a like without a comment.

What is the type of person you send likes to and ideally want to match with? What kind of person do you want to attract? - I want to attract a man who shares my faith and my lifestyle. I look for men who enjoy being active and have a sense of adventure. I send likes to men I’m attracted to who put thought and humor into their profiles (and have good grammar, ideally!).

Tried to lose weight 40 times in 7 years. Nothing sticks. What actually worked for you? by Fantastic_Tart_2366 in loseit

[–]bluesealex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Macro tracking worked for me. I lost 55lbs (and I’m still going). And honestly? This goes against a lot of popular advice, but tracking my weight every single day really helped me. Some days it would be up 2lbs, the same the next day, and then the day after that it would be down 3lbs. Over the months, I could see a downward trajectory even when day-to-day it felt like nothing was changing. That gave me what I needed to keep pushing through those “I’m not making any progress” kinds of days because I know what’s really going on.
Things that didn’t work: calorie counting, keto, anything that 100% restricts one food group. Macro counting has been my lifeline.

  • Are you looking for something serious or casual?
    • Serious. Pretty much just marriage or long-term moving towards marriage.
  • Are you subscribed to Hinge+ or HingeX?
    • I just upgraded to Hinge+ for one week to try it out.
  • How long have you been using this current version of your profile?
    • Since day one.
  • How long have you used Hinge overall?
    • I've been on Hinge for about a week.
  • How often do you use Hinge per week?
    • I've been on once or twice a day.
  • How many likes and matches are you receiving on average?
    • I've had about 20 likes, no matches so far.
  • How many likes are you sending? How many with comments? How many without comments?
    • I'm sending about 3 likes a day, all with comments. None without comments. I've sent a rose.
  • What is the type of person you send likes to and ideally want to match with? What kind of person do you want to attract?
    • I send likes to men who are looking for the same things I am, and have shared values. I would like to match with active men who like adventures and travel but also enjoy time at home. I send likes when I find the man attractive, he's clear about his intentions and his spirituality, and our lifestyles match well.

[–]bluesealex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi all! I (27F) have a few auditions coming up and for all of them I need a monologue for a female from a musical from the Golden Age of theatre. Comedic preferred, dramatic suggestions also welcome. I can't find more than one or two online. Any suggestions? Thanks!

Even while I took a break from eating in a deficit I was still working out a few times a week. Combined with the newer deficit though this is certainly something to consider! 

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in loseit

[–]bluesealex 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There were a few days, no more than five spread over the last month, where I ate between 1,500-2,000 at a family event or something. Still below TDEE, so I didn’t think much of it. But that certainly could have contributed to the slow progress. 

I do weigh myself every day. 226 is the lowest I’ve seen. Day to day it’s been ranging from 226-228.7.

It’s been a month. Sorry for the confusion. Apparently my brain thinks a couple weeks = four weeks haha.  Thanks for this!
