virtual pen pal

Hello,

I would really like to have somebody to go through this journey with. Somebody to talk with about the struggles and successes. If anybody is interested in actually keeping in touch regularly and keeping each other motivated please send me a message.

Thanks!

    lets do it I am game, the only thing I don't like about this site is that if I comment or leave you a message it doesn't show on the top that you have a message but I am on here every day and I can check. You don't have to do this alone.
  • Hi!

    Having someone to talk to sounds like a great idea. I'd definitely be willing to give it a shot if you want. I'm 25, about 80lbs over weight, live with my gf, go to school & work full time (busy busy busy), have a cat and a dog, AND am desperately trying to hold onto some semblance of a social life while going to the gym and working out. Needless to say I am quite busy and balancing it all is a bit tough. Having someone extra to talk to might make it that much easier.

    Best,

    N

    I would live to be your friend. Support is everything
  • I am new too! I tried to start last year before my wedding but became distracted and now I'm starting up all over again. This year is all about taking care of my body! I have had my struggles. At one point in the past I was 200lbs and I lost 70lbs! It CAN be done AND maintained;) This time around I am more focused on improvement I can see with my own eyes and feel in my body than the number on the scale. I am a mom and my four year old is actually my best trainer, he likes to workout next to me and say things like "WE CAN DO IT!" haha! I would love some encouragement and to give some as well so message away!!:D Wishing everyone success!!

    I know ALL the words! Ok, most of the words. Most of the smaller ones anyway.
