Workout buddy in Hampton Roads (southeast Virginia)

I am a 27 year old female living in Virginia Beach, VA and looking for people on here that are also trying to get healthy! Anywhere in Hampton Roads / Tidewater area would be great. Norfolk? Portsmouth? Chesapeake? Hampton? Newport News? Suffolk? Outer Banks? Let's get this going!
I've been doing the healthy-lifestyle-weightloss-journey thing for about 2 years, and it really is easier with others around you working towards the same goal. My friends now are still on a "College diet" - you know, late night pizza and ice cream breakfast with anything that you can buy in the 7-Eleven candy aisle as a snack! Is it any wonder I topped out at 305lb? (down 50!)
Basically, I'm looking for a workout buddy... or we can even form a local get healthy / workout group!
Mt. Trashmore anyone?

I don't live in Virginia but this is a great idea! Considering this website does seem like a safe place, I would most likely trust anyone on here. It's a great way to meet people that are focused on starting a healthy lifestyle!
I think I'm going to steal this idea and post one of my own.
Hope you find a workout buddy. Good luck on your journey! :flowerforyou:0 -
