Hey y'all! I have been around here about a month now, and done the whole intro. I have lots of buddies on here, but I really need someone who I can check in with daily. Right now I'm sitting about about 210 lbs, and I'm only 5'1 so my goal is 130 for now. I would love to have someone with similar goals to keep up with. I need the accountability of keeping my exercise & calories honestly with someone :)

  • Hi! I am 5'3 and started at 212lbs. Down to 199.8.....my goal is 135. Please feel free to check in with me. Am on here daily except for the past 2 weeks was on vacation and my phone was acting up :(

    Would love to be supportive and work towards goal together.
  • i am new to this site as of last week, but definitely not new to trying to lose weight. i dont have any buddies on here yet, but i am looking for some. i am 5'0 and at 141 as of this morning. i started this time around at 155. i completely understand the need to be held accountable. and none of my personal friends or family is doing this with me, so im kinda going it alone. i actually feel like i am aggravating them talking about this journey so much, but what is a girl to do? it helps me stay focused.
    i started using this site as a method to track calories, but i would love to have a support system within it, since i check in very frequently. feel free to check in with me as often as you would like!
