I really need to lose weight, because I am way too heavy. My only problem? Doing it alone. I dislike working out by myself and I have no idea how to diet the right way. Would anyone care to help me?

    Sure, if you want.

    I'm a classic 'fall off the wagon' person. Fitness mad for a few weeks then lose it completely again.

    I'm here for you ANY TIME you need me. I'm the same way you are...and most of us seem to be. I don't like to feel 'alone' in this journey. And I tend to 'fall off the wagon' more times than not. I need to lose weight badly. The most success I ever had was with an online buddy who was actually in England. The support I received from here, across an ocean, was the best.

    So whatever you need...I'm here, too!

    We're all here to support you online, but if you really need someone to workout with in person, you could post a message here looking for someone in your area.
