Motivation and Accountability Friends!

Hey all,
Looking for motivational and accountability friends. I'm a grad student in the last year of my Master's, and I really want to look good for graduation! I have a lot to lose, I hit 240 recently after being above 200 for the past four years. Before that I was always around 160, and played sports. I want to be around 140. My new goal is to start doing triathlons! I was a varsity swimmer, and I love to bike, and I can tolerate running haha. By next June I want to do a sprint triathlon.
My friends are all skinny but supportive, but I need some friends who know what I am going through. Thanks!

Feel free to add me! I just started on this again. I finished my Masters about 4 years ago in December, but I still remember the stress and wanting to look good when you graduate. I actually made it close to my goal by the time I graduated, but I gained it all back. Would love to have someone who is encouraging as well. I will send a friend request :-)0

Not sure if you posted on the right thread Callie, I didn't friend you. If you did choose the right thread, kind of full of yourself to be making unsolicited demands. To the rest of you, thanks for your positive responses! Glad we are already helping each other out!

Hi all, I have been gaining and losing the same 10 lbs since I got my Ph.D. three years ago. I'm trying to loose the pounds for good this time and looking for friends. I hope you all do not mind if I add you.0

I log daily and love to give and get support. I'm currently a pre-medical student finishing up my undergrad work so I know how hard it can be to track your nutrition and get exercise in. Feel free to add me.0

Sweetheart, It seems as though you're the only who is full of them self. I made a post on A THREAD..... It wasn't intended towards you at all. Besides, I didn't know whoever started a thread owned it. I was simply putting myself out there for friends. "unsolicited demands" LOL... NO, but yes I do have some requests, being that I am very dedicated to this and I take it seriously. Now if you still don't understand that than I'm sorry.
I was more replying to your negative tone right off the bat. Someone who needs to tell people they may get deleted before friending them on a diet forum is taking things pretty far, "sweetheart". But I hope you found some good friends who won't disappoint you from this thread. Good luck!
