Exactly. It's a STEREOTYPE. I look like a fat geek, but frankly I have well-rounded personality and I keep my professional interests strictly professional (i.e. you'll never hear me mentioning anything to do with technology/science/computers to a girl). And yet, with that looks we obviously both share, girls (I guess) tend to assume that you're an oblivious geek who would be so boring to be around with. I never judge anybody by their looks, but hey that's me :)

Anyway, thanks for posting and I am following your thread closely. I wish you good luck, doppelganger :)

Thanks for encouragement. It sure means a lot. I cut so much on the food that I am practically eating nothing, living on some greens, veggies and fruits and low-fat, low-cholesterol meat such as tuna. Can you imagine how my days look like. I just brisk-walked for 5 miles and had a shower then after I see what's up here I am going to do exercises. It's horrible, it's boring (I also work almost 60 hrs a week) but I absolutely have to do it. September is not that far and at 4 lbs/wk I WILL do it. If there's anybody else out there (I know >>7 is) with similar situation, DON'T let anybody affect what you're doing for your own good! And I am doing it at all fronts, building my career, reshaping my image... all to prepare myself for that special one. If I was an idiot, I'd say she (whoever she will be) doesn't deserve this much work. But hey, I keep thinking it's all for me and not anybody else.

Geez, thanks guys... Your support is giving me back some confidence I need to continue with hard-work.
