I work 3rd shift (10p-6a) so it tends to be difficult for me to stay on track with my weight loss journey. I want to lose 120 lbs. No I need to lose it. Let's be buddies & keep each other on the path to feeling great again :)

    Anyone can add me if they like. I’ve committed myself to this journey. I’ve just completed three months of this lifestyle change and have managed to lose 20kgs/44 lbs.
    I’m recommitting myself to the next three months where I hope to drop another 15 kgs/33lbs.
    I am definitely keen to check in with an accountability buddy.
    I hope you’re all doing well so far in your journey!
    We can do it! 🌻😍

    Count me in. I have been looking for a group like this. I recently lost 40 pounds working with an accountability coach. But, it was $600/3 months. I couldn't afford a second round. I was required to send a photo of all my food to him and a photo of my weight daily. It helped keep me on track.

    Monday morning weight in 264. Down 9lbs this week. First week of actual logging every bite so I realize it’s probably all water but I’m happy anyway and do not have unrealistic expectations for week two especially considering it’s Easter.

    Starting weight: 280
    Goal weight: 150
    April 8: 273
    April 15: 264
    Total weight lost:16

    I have a long way to go and am just starting (for the 100th millionth time). I would like people in my life who will encourage good self esteem.

    Definitely needing some buddies. No one I know is on a weight loss journey and my partner just wants to eat all the lasagna!

    Count me in! Started a month ago, down 6.5, hoping to lose 23 pounds by August, but more importantly, be nicer and less critical of myself along the way.

    What I put in my mouth does not define my self-worth, though my health says it’s time to stop ignoring the consequences of weighing too much. 🤔

    Good luck to you! Started a few weeks ago, and it’s definitely a daily struggle. Some days better than the next.

    Definitely struggling. Got off track over the holidays and can’t find my way back. Some days feel optimistic, other days hopeless. How do I get my groove back?
