I am the quintessential yo-yo dieter. I lost 35 pounds last year and gained it all back. I am tired of the up and down and just want to lose the weight and mantain it. I feel alone in the process because it seems everyone around me has a grasp on food and I don’t. I’ve always tried a diet but would like to just eat healthier and move more. I could really use one good weight loss buddy to go on the journey with me. I’m 44 with two kids and would like to lose 50 pounds. If you have similar weight to lose and want to hold eachother accountable and go on the journey with me, let me know :)

  • Hi Labina. I am also struggling to find time for fitness and meal planning while working long hours, parenting, and running a household. I'm 31 and have 5 lbs. to lose. I know that's not quite the same, but I'd be happy to accompany you on your journey.

    Hi Labina. I definitely understand where you are coming from. I’m 42 and lost 60lbs a few years back and still had more to go but slowly reverted back to my old ways and now I am starting gain back that weight! I really want to get back in the mindset I was a few years ago and am so ready to lose 75lbs and would love a weight loss buddy, sounds like we might be on a similar path.
