Looking for friends to keep me motivated!

Hi, I'm Amy, 36, 5'2", 187# as of this mornings weigh in. 95% of my friends are thin without working at it, so I am lacking "friends" to lose weight with.

I was able to lose 30 lbs last year in preperation for an anniversary trip to Hawaii, but have slowly put it ALL back on. I will be honest--I do not like to exercise, and I love to eat. That's a problem when I want to lose weight and get healthy. My goals: I would ultimately like to lose 50-60#. I want to teach my youngest daughter how important eating and exercising is to maintaing good health. She's 10. Not overweight at all, but I see my bad habits in her already.

I'm just looking for some people with similar goals to help keep me accountable on here.

:smile:

    Anyone is welcome to add me... 127 pounds in seven months and going strong! You can do it just log everything. Be painfully honest and log properly and you will lose weight staying under the goals.

    Hi All,

    I'm 27, 164cms... i need to lose 10kgs... but i too lack serious motivation.

    I am starting the process of tracking my food and being positive... but somehow the negative still slips through every now and then.

    i am trying to do the gym 3-4 times a week... however struggling.. but i am taking up the challenge of boot camps on Saturday mornings....

    Good luck to all!
