I find it's actually less helpful to try to lose weight with someone than on my own- whenever I've had a workout buddy or accountability partner they end up ditching out on workouts or cheating on their diet more than I do, and then it either makes me lose motivation or just get annoyed with them.

Why do you feel you need someone else to help you? You need to be able to do this on your own because weight loss, fitness & health are for life, and you can only ever truly rely on yourself. It's great to have friends with similar goals, but I wouldn't try to rely on them to keep you motivated- you need to do that for yourself.

Also you only have about 7 weeks left before 2017 arrives and it's completely unrealistic to expect to lose 12 kg/26.5 pounds in that short a time frame- I don't think you could lose even half that amount in 7 weeks- at least not safely. You might want to be more realistic about your goals. 2 pounds per week is the maximum loss rate and 1 pound per week is what works best for most people.
