Hi guys, my name is rachel. I have used my fitness on and off to count calories. I have decided this is the year i will lose weight!!! No going back!! I am currently at 243 and want to get down to 150. I joined a gym and have been going at least 3times a week. I feel like im getting healthier already even though i haven't lost any weight yet. The only thing i am missing is.a buddy to work with lol

    I'll be your buddy! I'm trying to get down to about 130 from 297. I've just started making plans today, so I'm feeling a wee bit clueless. Any buddies/support would be awesome. :)

    Hey everyone! Would it be okay to jump on the adding you to my friends list which is currently empty. I just need a buddy to sort of keep me motivated. I've been struggling with this losing weight thing for my entire life and I'm about to start my first job in a week or so (previously being a student) and I think this is the perfect time to get back into staying healthy and keeping track of what I eat. I want to lose weight but sometimes I get a bit negative and obsessive about that so I want to change my thought process and outlook on being overweight and trying to lose weight. I mean if I want to lose weight that is a start and s positive decision. Anyway feel free to add me if you would like. Also I'm going to add some people from this thread - if you would like to accept please do and if not then that is your choice. Good luck to everyone with their journeys! God bless ☺️
