in Motivation and Support
I'm having really serious motivational issues and I think I need a special kind of help to get motivated. Nobody that I know in real life has been willing to do this with me, so I figured I'd ask here and see if anyone else has a similar need.

I haven't been able to get myself to work out more than 2 days a week for the last couple months. I really need to change that. I want someone who will e-mail with me in the morning to ask, "What workout will you be doing today?" and in the evening to say, "Did you do your workout today?" and at the end of the week too so we can compare how we did that week. We could alternate every other day for whose job it is to e-mail first. It would be a combination of motivation and light competition to see who worked out the most days that week.

I'm looking for someone to e-mail whose situation is similar to mine. Here are my stats:

Female
25 years old
5'4
161.5 pounds
130 pound goal weight

Let me know if you're interested and we'll exchange e-mail addresses.

    OMG! Other than our age, we have the same stats! I'm 34 years old, I'm 5'4", CW is 161.4, and my goal is also 130. My SW was 200, so I'm over half way...but I could always use more encouragement...especially with workouts!

    Let me know if you're looking for somebody else to e-mail!! We are very similar!

    Age: 24 (will be 25 in July)
    Height: 5'2
    Current Weight: 169
    Goal Weight: 125-130 (we'll see when we get there).

    I'm getting married on 09/02 and I'd really like to be under 150 - even if it's just 149.8! lol. I have promised myself that every day between now and then, I will do some sort of exercise - whether it be just a long walk on a very busy day. I am going to do weight training circuits every other day and my current top exercise is running - I have a 5 mile race on Sunday!

    A group e-mail sounds great to me! This could be the kick in the butt I need to get me to the gym more often!
