Accountability Buddies?

Good morning,

After another failure of an attempt to stay on my diet and workout schedule due to full time college as well as full time career stresses, I have decided to seek out some people to help me stay in check. I'm very willing to check in once a day and keep each other as accountable as possible,

Over the past 2 years, I swear, after yo-yoing I've lost at least 70 lbs total, but it keeps coming back on and I keep needing to take it back off. It's been a struggle.

I've been struggling with body issues and anxiety ever since I could remember.. My only real goals out of this are to finally be happy with myself and to gain more energy as well as a real meaning for life.

At my highest, I've been 153 at 5'3.5, and at my lowest I've been 116.

My current weight (This is after eating this morning) is 128.8.

Mind you, I'm super frustrated because I had a big binge eating fit this week. I was seriously 123.6 pounds just a little over a week ago..

In all, I'd love for you to share your story. Any and all motivation helps. Please, feel free to add me. Let's get healthy... together.

Yours Truly,
Katie

    Hey there Katie!

    I honestly feel the same way as you do, I have a little bit of a body image issue, and I feel like I won't look good at all in beautiful dresses and skirts. I want to be able to feel confident in myself, enough to walk around in those to feel like I do look good.

    I'd love to add you if that's okay, sometimes I do need a kick in the butt too (especially because I've been wanting to eat sweeter things recently.)

    Keep trying!! I've tried to lose weight and failed so many times but with that I learned and developed discipline. Now cutting is easy for me. Stay on top of your cardio and just start with small changes in your diet it will make a big difference. Good luck:))
