Anyone want to team up and get healthy. I have a whole plan ready to go. I need some friends to hold me accaountable.
Cardio every other day, 10,000 steps a day, weight training 2x a week, no beer, no fried foods.
Anyone in the same boat?

I prefer making incremental changes.
From your list, I'd do the "no beer" thing for a few weeks before holding myself accountable for the other goals. I might find myself with more energy for the exercising and be inclined to eat better, but I'd master the one goal before moving on to a whole host of additional goals.
BTW, I'm a terrible feed friend and never liked team sports, but I do like answering questions

Here for accountability! Add me as a friend. I can’t seem to be able to do it on my end.3

Dang it, I just missed you! I started a 30 day challenge that turned into a 90 day challenge on July 1. I’m 62 days in already and have met my goal as of today. I’ve created a new mini goal, just vanity lbs at this point, but it’s been an awesome experience. Sometimes these challenges can be impactful if you’re truly committed.
Good luck and let us know how you do!2 -

Day 1 in the books! Congrats to you. Tell me about your progress?1 -
I just weighed and tracked my food to stay in a calorie deficit, weighed myself first thing in the morning to follow my weight trend (because weight loss isn’t linear), and used IF to shorten my eating window for adherence. I didn’t do anything else because I wanted to focus on 1 thing at a time and weight loss comes down to calories. I wanted to make the process the least complicated as possible so it mimicked everyday life and not a diet. Whenever I went overboard with too high of expectations, an aggressive workout schedule, aggressive diet, aggressive anything, I always burnt out. So, no more “dieting” for me. Just minor tweaks to meet my goals.3

Hello
add me if you like. I'm 54, exercise is hard for me due to back/hip issues but I could use the buddy to ensure I get out there and do what I can do and push myself. 1 -
I'm 4 days late, but yes I would love to be a part of the challenge! I have been struggling majorly. I got down to goal weight a couple of years ago, with the help of MFP. Have since gained around 40 lbs, so that is what I need to lose. Is everyone just coming back here to update progress?0
