Help!... Looking for an accountability buddy

Eating healthy, going to the gym and losing weight has always been a struggle for me. I am looking for a support team I can checkin with on a daily basis.

    Hello to the three of you. I am new to My Fitness Pal and the main reason I joined was to find one or more Accountability Partners. I don't have a lot of weight to lose, but I have been sedentary almost all of my life and am dealing with arthritis in my knees and lower back pain. I go to physical therapy, but I need to be doing exercise at home, too. My problem is that I always find other things I have to do and then, there's no time left to exercise (love the way the mind works :). It would really help to have someone who has similar experiences and wants someone like I do, to keep each other working on our goals (with lots of positive reinforcement/pats on the back -- how do you do that on the internet? Is there anyone who can relate and is interested in working with me?
    Thanks!

    Me too! I don't have a problem getting to the gym, but the nutrition piece feels like torture! I'm up for all the support I can get!

    Hi there! I just started this journey, and I'm also looking for an accountability buddy! I'm going to need help once I start struggling to lose the last of the weight that's hard to get off. I'm willing if you are!

    I have trouble with it all. I'm not severely over weight and my friends roll their eyes when I say I need to loose weight. Sue me I don't like my belly jiggling when I walk. I love to eat and I'm a teacher. 12 hour days so plenty of excuse not to go to the gym. I need a partner. My husband plays basketball with his buddies.
