    I will tell you how it is. Feel free to add me.
  • I'll call you on it when needed ... and I don't really get in to the "attaboy" stuff on profiles anyway ... hope that works for you! ;-)

    Add me if you want, OP (and anyone else). I look at all my friend's diaries (those that share). I am not a nutritionist or fitness expert, so of course when I comment about something it's just my thoughts and what I have learned. But I do try to be a little helpful other than giving the 'good logging' thing. :smile:
  • You inspired me to write a blog post on how I finally was able to be accountable and get myself on track and stay on track. Sharing here for those who are interested.

  • It's always good to have an accountability partner(s) when it comes to something that requires a long time commitment. This is my 3rd or 4tfh time trying to loose weight and each time I have failed, mainly due to my struggle with being able to keep my diabetes (insulin dependent) under control.

    I signed up with MFP a week ago and I can already see how much this website/program is going to help me. Slowly but surely I will be able to loose the weight. For my first week without any exercise (so to speak) I lost 1.5 lbs. My problem every time when my glucose gets low I have to eat something, whether I'm hungry or not, to get my glucose back up before I go into a seizure. So it discourages to even try to loose weight because it seems hopeless at times. Yet I know it's not hopeless, I just have to really believe in myself and keep on keeping (Phil. 4:13).

    Anyone happy to befriend me to be an accountable partner?
