Hey everyone, I just started about a month ago and now that im settled in a routine, I need some friends to keep me accountable! My weaknesses include occassional laziness, making excuses, eating bad things on the weekend, and binge eating--eek! My motivation is my husband who is now deployed. I am also military so im in fairly good shape but I wanna get BETTER! I have 15 more lbs to lose to be at my ideal weight. So...friends...accountability...please!

    Hi! Well first off thank you to you and your husband for being in the military. Second I have more than 15 lbs to go to my goal weight but I'm awesome at support and motivation.

    Me too! My husband is my support, but he's losing a lot faster than i am and its starting to get discouraging. I've been doing it for a month (trying to lose pregnancy weight) and i've lost 7b lbs. My husband has been doing it for 3 weeks and he's lost 20! thinking about strangling him in his sleep lol

    Hi everyone! I'm in, and I have all of the same weeknesses, AshMeg! My only stipulation is that you have to be interactive in the newsfeed. I have some "friends" on here who never comment or support me. It feels like you are talking to yourself sometimes! :tongue:

    I hate that! Seems so unfair the way it melts off of men. :grumble:
