edited September 2024 in Motivation and Support
Ok, so I have been super motivated by this website and I really love it. I have gotten two of my friends involved lately and I am a mentor of sorts for them which I love because it keeps me accountable for my actions. Now I have even gone a step further. My brother is also heavy, we both have ben overweight our whole lives. I challenged him to a weight loss goal and he accepted. Now his goal is 56 pounds and mine is 41 but I know he will drop it quick, so I have my work cut out for me. If I win, he is going to buy me a Nook (an e-reader) which is 250.00. I can not afford one and I really really want it bad. I will need all the support I can get to win. Please feel free to friend me to give me encouraging words!! I would greatly appreciate it!! (I don't know what his prize is yet, but I am sure it will be something good!) lol

    You could always do a weight loss fund with him. You pay each other $5 dollars for every pound lost that goes into the fund jar. Once you both reached your weight you'd have $485 in the jar. That would cover your reader and a nice treat for him. I think it would be a great motivator to see the fund jar grow.

    How fun! I would LOVE a Nook and the idea of a weight loss fund would be fun too. Good Luck!! Add as a friend if you wish.
