I’m looking for weight loss buddies, I am trying to get serious and lose this weight. My goal is to lose 90 lbs.

To make a long story short, I quit smoking around New Years, 2017. I gained 50 lbs throughout the year because instead of smoking, I would snack...

The plan was to focus on dieting and my weight loss New Years, 2018 but my mom passed away suddenly on New Year’s Day.

My mom had a lot of medical problems and I want to be healthy for myself and I know it’s what she would have wanted for me.

I need buddies who are serious and supportive about their weight loss too. Preferably females (generally it’s harder for us to lose weight) and maybe those who are just having a hard time, depressed, or need a friend. I’d like for us to help each other.

I’m new to MFP so I guess add me if interested? Or message me. Even if you don’t, good luck on your journey!

    I can so relate. I feel like when my mom died I just didn’t care anymore. I gained so much weight and then I thought I was just going to eat myself to death. I opted to have weight loss surgery and now I’m just trying to get the last 80 lbs off and get healthy. I just feel so lost now not being able to share this with my momma.

    Hey you both.

    I know how hard it is to lose a parent (been there). Life will never be the same.

    Dedicating your weight loss and health goals for them is awesome.
