edited September 23 in Motivation and Support
So I'll start by saying I'm super-motivated to lose weight...I've lost 9 lbs so far in a little over a month and intend to keep going to meet my goal.

That said...I have a LONG way to go and was curious if anybody else out there wanted to be my 'partner in crime' and hold each other accountable? Or even someone who just wants to hold ME accountable?! Lol. Some days I know I need that little extra kick to get off my butt and work out. Diet isn't an issue as I've been very diligent about tracking my intake, but I need to workout more consistently. Right now I'm at about 4 days a week, but want to push it up to at least 5 days, preferably 6.

    If you need a friend, feel free to add me. I am starting with a goal of 100 pounds (although according to BMI I need to lose at least 110). This is a great place for support and inspiration.

    I wish there was a way to 'tag' people in Status updates like there is on Facebook. That way we could just tag each other and kick each other into gear if we need that boost to work out, etc.

    And I'm all for a little tough love, so no coddling here!!!

    You can "tag" as a comment to your MFP auto-post on FB.... just type "@" then our name :)

    My FB s/n is the same.

    I am just trying to avoid mixing MFP and FB since i have a hard enough time keeping track of my FB stuff as it is. hmm.

    I might do that.

    But now that I see that I can create a group on FB, that might actually work.
