    Join a Group - or a Challenge that interests you. Others can't "give" you motivation, that comes from within. But making it more personal can help.

    There are various diary settings. Some people let anyone look, others let only friends look. I (personally) don't get inspiration from diaries.

    Pals with a similar calorie goal is a great idea
