    My girlfriend, who is the only one I ever talk to about my weight loss (I'm still about 50lbs away from my goal, mind you) motivates me but I really don't need it. You need to do this for yourself, there is people that will cheer you up and others that... well, lets say its better to lose them along with the weight, so you need to do this for yourself, if you are not convinced you want to do this yourself nothing anyone would tell you matters!

    I found people who are going through the same thing I am going through and they are a great support but for most of this enterprise I've been on my own. I have my dietitian with whom I am accountable, and my hubby has watched my ups and downs with amused interest, but it's me.

    You have to own your state of health, you will succeed or fail on your own efforts, and it shouldn't have anything to do with friends.

    The lack of friends, supporting friends, gets me a bit down and turn to comfort food because of that. What should i do? :\
    Just to be clear, having/not having friends doesn't predicate how you control your diet. People being creatures of habit, will continue with habits (bad or good) unless they change them. So you just have to learn better habits about eating. If you get down, don't turn to food, but find something else. For some it's a hobby. For others it's exercise. And for others it's reading and obtaining knowledge.

    No friends - then you have a lot of time to be working out, finding fun fitness activities, doing food prep, etc. With friends I find there to be a lot of food centered activities.

    I don't know where you live, but if you have Meet Up near you - great place to find people to do stuff with. I found a group for active ladies that do outdoor activities like walking, hiking, kayaking, etc... Gets me out being social and is great exercise.
