My name is Angela and I need help!

I KNOW how to eat right. I KNOW how to exercise. I've gotten lazy in both things. I know what to do and I am not doing it. I was to my doctor yesterday due to a minor health issue that has come up.

I need accountability partners that will help me get my fiber, fruits and veggies in my diet. I also need to be drinking more water. I need accountability partners to help me to exercise (I am a runner.)

I am looking for some people to maybe start following me and daily review my food diary and help encourage me to do better!

    My coworkers and I started a 10 week weight loss challenge this week and would love to help encourage you too!

    It's a long tough road - either you stick with it or the roller-coaster rounds the top and shoots down again, only to start climbing again. I rode that roller-coaster for years, did everything, every diet, ran the fat-2-fit challenge group, everything. Last week I finally took a turn for permanent change, had the sleeve done, I am 7 days post op and doing great - down 15 so far. Not saying my journey is right for you, only that you must be all in with your journey, no half-in/half-out. You got this, you already said what you need to do. Hang in there and stay strong... Let me know how your doing.

    Our monthly running challenge thread is world class accountability. You show up (me too)…that's it, the runners will be there for you.

    Hi- I’d like to be your accountability partner. Can you add me as your friend? I just downloaded the app so I’m not sure how to do it yet. I’m 40 with 2 kiddos. Thanks!

    You still have to be the person to do the work. I use the forums and my community to keep myself accountable to me. It's a bit backwards not wanting to disappoint other people when we really shouldn't want to disappoint ourselves. Free free to come share your journey as I an other new friends share theirs.
