But when one of her law school friends \u2014 who was starting to date again after a divorce \u2014 asked three of her former bridesmaids, including Elisabeth, to sign up in solidarity, she figured she would create \u201cthe single most obnoxious version\u201d of herself for her profile. She had tried online dating off and on for years, carefully curating the most polished version of herself \u2014 to no avail. So, her \u201cobnoxious version\u201d of a profile prominently featured photos of her with her cat. She was upfront about her flaws and sticking points. She was also unapologetic about the fact that she\u2019s fat. She wears between an XL and a 2XL in dresses and between a size 16 and 20 in pants. \u201cWhen you\u2019re a fat woman online dating, there\u2019s this mind trap you have to fall into with photos \u2014 because if you take a photo with a good angle and good lighting and with the right makeup and clothing, you can shave off a pretty good amount of weight,\u201d she told me in an interview in December. \u201cBut you don\u2019t get all of those factors when you sit down at the first date and meet them in person.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When Elisabeth, a 34-year-old lawyer, first signed up for OkCupid back in May 2014, she didn\u2019t have high hopes.
