Hello all. I am 40 years old, and need to lose over 200 pounds and debating surgery. I don't have the support in my life on sustain long term changes and would be great to have someone or people to do this with. Ideally would prefer similar weight loss goals and be in it for the long haul. Daily check ins, discuss obstacles, successes, etc. All the ups and downs not just cheering. Tried around this time last year with some success and lost focus. Now I'm at it again.

Hello, I am 48 and need to lose about 150 lbs. I was overweight before, but the years of covid lockdown have been isolating and sedentary for me, and my weight has skyrocketed. I'm just starting to tackle it now, and it feels overwhelming. I am up for checking in and discussing our progress, strategies and setbacks.0
