    I have plenty of similar excuses, and am halfway too. It seem like half way is a really hurdle. Good to have got halfway, but the second half seems like a long way to go still!

    Hello everyone, I am new to this, I just started today. I am 45 year old female and need to lose 70 pounds. I'm a type 2 diabetic taking 3 medications to help control my blood sugar. I also have an injured knee so I'm limited with exercise I mainly do walking, I need motivation to stay with this and get myself in a healthier place. I have high blood pressure, a heart problem and have had 2 mini strokes, I'm hoping that having a community to come to for support will help me change my bad habits. I hope everyone has a wonderful day!
  • I'm looking for buddies also.

    Please feel free to add me! I lost in the past and gained it back. I'm happy emotionally, but developed bad habits like over-eating and being a couch potato. Looking to turn that back around slowly, accountabilibuddies would help a lot!!

  • Sent you (and several others) friend requests! I can use the accountability too and community helps for sure! My most successful weightlosses and gains have been with my friends and our mutual eating habits!

    I need to be held accountable too! I'm new, just starting. Have about 50 pounds to lose off a small frame (5'4") so I'm in it for the long haul! I'll add a bunch of you from this post too.

    Would appreciate an accountability buddy, as well. I am so discouraged because I plan and feel motivated, but mess up within a short time. So ticked / disappointed in myself. Feel like "what's the point". I keep gaining rather than losing. Accountability is a key factor for me. Thank you
  • Add me!!!! This girl is in a rut! I have 50lbs to lose and can't stop weighing myself. I've lost 18lbs but gained 2 this morning. I need some buddies! I know 2lbs is nothing but I'm scared of not being successful like in the past.

    I need an accountability buddy since I suffer with both restricting and bingeing.
