Determined to do it this time but looking for accountability buddies

Hi everyone.

I'm the classic yo-yo, faddy, impatient dieter. However I am determined to do it properly this time. I'm approaching my mid 40's and the weight is creeping up and I feel very unhealthy.

I want to change my mindset and feel fit and healthy and develop new habits that will last more than two weeks.

I would love to buddy up with someone who is in a similar place in their journey to share daily encouragement, motivation and general kicking up the *kitten* support!

    Hi! 👋 I’m in the same position as you, I stick to something for a while, lose a bit of weight and then put it back on again. I’ve been doing it for years. I turn 30 in a few months and I’m trying to lose weight before then and actually keep it off this time! Would also like some support on here, keep each other going ☺️ Good luck in your journey 💪🏻

    I am also turning 30 this year and hit the heaviest I’ve ever been. I’ve tried all the fad diets too with minimal success... so here’s to doing it right & keeping it off.

    Hiya, feel free to add me, too. I am fighting self control, in particular snacking 🥧🍫🧇🍒🍕 at work 👩‍💻. I workout 🏃‍♀️🚴‍♀️🏋️‍♀️ to compensate, but I'd love to gain more discipline when it comes to what I eat and to find a way to cope with stress differently.
