Default I need a weight loss buddy, anyone interested?

My journey has been so tough, that going alone is stressful for me sometimes. I would love to make some friends and maybe find some people close to my age to be buddies with. I'm up to exchanging FB info too, if that helps.

I never thought I would be asking for a buddy, but I think I am going to need one. It's getting harder emotionally, I think... I have some barriers to break through.

I would also love to be your buddy! My goal is different from yours, but it's always nice to have an motivational and accountability partner. Let me know if you are interested.

I could always use more weight loss buddies It helps a lot when you have that support there. I'm usually always available, so feel to message me.

Also, congrats on the 64 pound loss!! That is amazing

I don't know how many buddies you wanted, but here's another one. I know I just started, but I've been trying to lose weight again and found that it's been almost impossible without someone who's on the same path who can celebrate when I've got to the top of a hill or nudge me along when I'm dragging my feet. Anyway, this labored prose piece is just a way of saying, if all the "buddy" positions are not filled, I'd love to provide another shoulder to lean on.

I'd definitely be up for another buddy. We're actually around the same weight right now, which is pretty cool. I haven't seen too many people in the 20-somethings that are around the weight I'm at right now. It's always nice to be able to encourage other people and have them encourage you as well. =D

Yes!!!!! I NEEEEED someone (or many someones!) to hold me ACCOUNTABLE!
I'm 31 years old, overweight, tired, lazy, achy, and TIRED OF LOOKING AND FEELING LIKE THIS! I'm tired of wearing clothes that I hate because I have such limited selections. I'm tired of feeling unsexy in bed with my husband. I'm tired of feeling invisible! Enough is enough. I've been using food to comfort myself because I'm feeling bad about my body for TOO LONG! it's very silly and non productive. Soooooo.... Maybe those of us who want to join this "buddy system" could devise a plan to help keep us all on track? Perhaps we can post what we ate for the day, or when we cheat, when we do/ don't exercise.... Any ideas? I feel like if I admit publicly when I mess up, that I'll be less likely to do it! Lol.
Ps- fighting the urge to snack at 12am as we speak...

Ok, this thread has a lot of people saying "Let's Buddy!" and we aren't doing anything :-P So anyone who want to be a weight loss buddy with me can friend and we can go from there. For real, I am ready to do this!

I'm exactly the same way! I'm at 183 and I can't seem to get down into the 170's, it's so utterly frustrating!!!!
