I am working to lose 110lbs. Could really use an accountability buddy. Preferably someone who is blunt and will be tough on me when needed.

    I also need to lose around the 90lbs for an operation. Maybe we could help each other?

    I have a long way to go, still. 13 pounds or so down, and about 80 pounds in progress. If it's alright, we could join as a small group?

    Hi to all!! I’m on a 150 pound weight loss journey. I’m now probably like some on this chat; I’m dealing with uncontrollable high blood pressure with medicine, border line diabetes, swollen feet. I’m realizing I need to take better of myself since I do not want to have a stroke or heart attack. It’s a rude awakening but am taking this more seriously than I have in the past. One of my newer habits is logging in my meals. It is eye opening and allows me to plan meals around social events. Next is moving my steps daily from under 300 to what is the recommended 10,000 using one of the plans on fitness pal. Good luck to everyone on this thread. I wish you all health and happiness!

We have people with more than 200 pounds to lose, people getting close to goal, and everything in between.

    I'm 50 lbs down on a 150 lb journey. Not my first rodeo, but much smoother this time. I am holding myself to very specific health and food goals, so happy to partner with you.

    You're welcome to add me as a friend or anyone else for that matter, and believe me, I can be very blunt at time. (sometimes it gets me into trouble)


    I could surely use a few 'blunt' friends myself to keep me from procrastinating...especially when it comes to exercise.

    I'm 51 years old.
    I'm a wife,
    I'm a mom and....
    I'm a grandma <3

    I have over 100 lbs to lose (SW: 305 lbs) but I'll be happy just to get to Onederland.
    I prefer to 'exercise' at home, mostly using free weights (kettlebells and dumbbells) and create all of my own exercise routines.

    These days I try to live on the 'lighter side' when it comes to dieting and exercise in general.

    This is not my first rodeo, so to speak, and stressing over what I 'should of', 'would of', or 'could of' done in the past to lose the weight, (and keep it off) is a complete waste of energy.

    Life is too short to get my undies in a knot over my little screw ups. I've fallen off the wagon more times than I care to admit...

    I'm hoping I can hang on this time around...
    So please...send me a friend's request.
