Looking for a mentor, just time-to-time support.

I'm an athletic female (5'4'', 134lbs) with long-term physical injuries, and long-term disordered eating. I love to geek out on perception and emotion, down to the biology and neurology.

Awesome! I think we’d click. Please take a quick glance at my mentor bio and let me know.

I would love a friend to motivate me!

I would very much like to get adopted.
I lose focus in between.
I just need someone whom I could answer to and who can guide me with my weight loss.

I could use a mentor/moral support type. A little about me:
I'm 36, 5'3"
SW: 252
CW:190
GW: 150 (for now)
While I have lost some weight already, it was several years ago. Thankfully I was able to keep it off. I just started up again on Oct 28th. I don't have access to a gym because of where I live, so at home workout advice would be appreciated.
Not looking for someone to sugar coat things for me. I'm not too good to be told. I'll be the first to admit that sometimes i need a kick in the pants.

After I got adopted by my sensei, I feel more confident in losing weight. I now lost 9 lbs in less than 2 weeks. Will have more to come. Thanks, sensei!

Hi I am a 30 y.o male 90kgs in weight with a height of 5'11" . I have never ever in life taken part in any physical exercise or sports. Now I am determined to get back in shape and try to loose all the body pains. I have extreme pains in knees at the slightest sign of stress. I need some suggestions as to how do I go about without damaging my joints (or my determination). Anyone interested in adopting me.
I have just started another thread asking for advice as well, I wanted to link it here but don,t know how.

Putting myself out there again as a mentor. A little about myself. I started off a little over 2 years ago right at 400 pounds. As of today I am at 205 pounds. I have completed two half marathons and looking for my first full marathon and triathlon in 2018. I would particularly be willing to help individuals that are looking to lose 100+ pounds but will be willing to help out just about anyone. I'm also a huge nerd and tech geek. So if you like fitness gadgets ect then we will probably get along great.

Send me a PM if you would like to talk a bit more and see if we are a good fit.

Hey everyone!!! So I want to put myself out there to mentor/accountabilabuddy. A little about me: my weight has fluctuated (sometimes dramatically) my entire life, but I am so sick of that unhealthy cycle - so this is the last time I go through this weight loss thing! Currently, I am about 11 pounds into what will amount to be an 80 lb weight loss journey. In addition to losing weight and building a healthy lifestyle, I also want to gain muscle and increase flexibility. I'd be looking to mentor someone with similar goals because that is what I have knowledge on. As far as mentoring goes, I would be on you like white on rice - helping to keep you motivated, answering questions you might have (to the best of my ability!), and pushing you to stay on track. If this sounds like something that would be helpful for you, send me a message!

Hey noobs and mentors,

We are closing this discussion as we wrap up the 2017 year. We will be opening a new discussion soon to help match noobs and mentors together in 2018.

When we open this discussion I will @ all mentors for 2017 to make sure you are aware of the new discussion.

Thanks!
