    I'm in! I need an accountability partner too. After 4 kids I'm ready to be done with the post pregnancy body, but I need someone to have to answer to. I'll add you and we can do this together. My goal is to loose 40 lbs in the next year. By my birthday in December would be even better!

    Hey @klbrown007 and @armywifelong :) for accountability partners you should also use the app achi3ve :) you set your long term goal then complete 3 things to do each day towards your success. It utilizes partner accountability :D

    I would like to be added too. I have 60 pounds to lose and I'm getting nowhere except being more depressed. I have no support at home...only criticism. How do you add me and where do I find you?

    Would it be worthwhile us creating a group where we can all meet and chat?

    I think that would be a great idea!

    I would love that @hiddencat12. Even though I've been using MFP for a while off and on I've never really done much with the community section of the app until now, so I'm pretty clueless as to how to do that. Somewhere where we can chat, motivate each other, post inspiring quotes, or even just say how we struggled every day would be perfect for me.

    For example....after weeks of having no soft drinks I caved and had a large coke after I took 4 kids to the dentist and 3/4 had 1-3 cavities.

    Thanks for adding me and checking in. Your request came at a great time. I was on the treadmill and was struggling to do it today. I really appreciate it.

    ok set up a group it is called Accountability/ motivational partners. anyone can view the name of the group but only members can see the discussions and comment on threads. think this link should work

    I always seem to do this. Really motivated at the start but then lose motivation. Hoping to stick with it this time with group support
