I have never been one to work out with my friends, and I dont like when people tell me what to do!!
So I have never had a buddy....someone who holds me accountable for my actions.

Well I do now, and it works!:bigsmile:

I would NOT have exericsed today if it wasn't for my buddy posting a note telling me SHE had completed the promised workout....where was my post????

So grab a buddy by the AV!!

Have a great day MFP!!

:heart: :heart: :heart:

    Great idea!! I don't have a buddy but I have made sure that anyone and everyone I know (friends, family & co-workers) knows that I'm doing the MFP thing. They ALL hold me accountable, either blatantly or subtly.

    One of my co-workers just put out a candy dish on her desk and my secretary told me to go check it out. She had put the calorie content on a little note right on the dish. It was hilarious!

    I appreciate the heck out of accountability! :smile:

    It took me forever to figure out what an avitar was...now you're telling me there is an abbreviation for it??? I have got to find a dictionary of english to texting/e-mailing abbreviations. I feel like a dinosaur!

    BTW (I know that one), great idea about the virtual buddy! I think it's probably better than the real thing...I always do more socializing with my buddy than working out!
